We had a lot to deal with, what with Scoutmasters Jenny, Mary and Annie’s (fake) injuries, but we learned some first aid to help them. Fake animals bit them. We had to flush things out of our eyes, and treated our scoutmasters’ fake burns and learned how to get a fish hook out of their skin. (We didn’t harm any scoutmasters in these practice scenarios.)

Strawtown Koteewi Park is a great park northeast of town with walking trails, Indian artifacts, a nature center, camping, fishing, zip lines, horseback riding, archery… We recommend Koteewi for a lot of outdoor fun.
We met on a Saturday morning and got our compasses and maps and even bags for trash. Ginny had some camp songs for the trail, and there was a lot of enthusiasm. But picking up trash and having fun also means you might take a wrong turn… … Read the rest
New Scout Campout was our first camping trip, and it sure was memorable!
Maybe some people wouldn’t have fun camping on a rainy and cold March weekend, but the excitement of our first outing made it all worthwhile.

We learned first aid, hiking safety, how to raise and lower the flag, and … Read the rest
Scouts BSA serves girls in the fifth grade through high school. Service, community engagement and leadership development become increasingly important parts of the program as youth lead their own activities and work their way toward earning Scouting’s highest rank, Eagle Scout. Troop 222 provides a traditional scout-led scouting program. We welcome any girl and her family to visit and join our troop.
Our meetings are Mondays (except for national and school holidays) from 7:00-8:30PM at Bethel Lutheran Church at 20650 Cumberland Road, Noblesville, IN 46062.
New girls in the troop get their shoulder loops, neckerchief, and scout handbook.
Troop 222 met for the first time on Tuesday, Feb 22, 2022 and takes its troop number from that date. Eight girls met together to make troop activity t-shirts and each girl showed their creativity in a unique design.
“The patrol method is not a way to operate a Boy Scout troop—it is the only way.”
