President Bush gave the Commencement Address at Greensburg High School in Greensburg, Kansas. It has been one year since Greensburg, KA suffered the loss of nearly their entire town to a tornado. One of the Scouts in Troop 150 undertook a service project to collect and deliver over 500 books to Greensburg during his Thanksgiving break in 2007. During the Commencement Address, President Bush mentioned this Scout's name as an example of how America is one large community that cares enough to reach out to those who need help without any expectation of special recognition. Christopher Skrzypczak, who is no longer a member of Troop 150 since he turned 18 shortly after delivering the books, along with his mother, two younger brothers (one is in our Troop and the other will be in our Troop in a couple of years) and his younger sister made the long drive to deliver the books in person.

Thank you for stopping by the online home of Boy Scout Troop 150 of Enterprise, Alabama. Our goal is to help young men learn leadership skills that they will use throughout their lives. We provide the framework for these skills to today's youth in a values-based program, while participating in inviting activities and community service projects.

We encourage our Scouts to enjoy camping, canoeing, climbing, and other rewarding adventures in the great outdoors. Highlights of our Troop include a variety of activities and outings designed to meet the goals as set by the youth leaders and the Scouts in the Troop. In the past two years we have attended the Merit Badge University offered at Auburn University, and attended summer camp at Camp Rainey Mountain, GA. While at CRM, our Troop went whitewater rafting on the Nantahala River in North Carolina. During the holiday break from school, some in the Troop traveled to a long-term winter camp, Camp Comer, located near Fort Payne, AL, to experience cold weather camping. During January 2008, Troop 150 and Troop 50 shared a Wilderness Survival training weekend at Camp Ala-Flo. The experience was so successful that both Troops are hosting the Fall Camporee for the Alabama-Florida Council, with a theme for Wilderness Survival. If your Troop is not in our Council and you want to come join us on September 12, 13, and 14, 2008, send an e-mail to our Scoutmaster. Troop 50 and 150 sent Scouts to MBU in Auburn again in 2008. For summer camp in 2008, we went to Camp Comer located near Fort Payne, AL. The weather was MUCH cooler than it was back at home. We left camp in the wee hours of Saturday morning and headed up to Tennessee to go whitewater rafting on the Ocoee river. We set up our own experience with a fairly new company, Raft One Whitewater . The experience was AWESOME & ROW's customer service was beyond AWESOME! Look for some pictures from summer cmap and the rafting on this website soon!

On December 27, 2007, Troop 150 purchased a used 28-passenger bus to provide our transportation needs for future Troop activities. You can see pictures of the bus and some of the graphic design ideas under consideration for the bus. Please submit your own ideas to Mr. Will for inclusion on the page.

Our Troop provides Color Guard Details to various organizations in and around our community, as well as engages in community related service projects including actively supporting other community organizations. Our Troop participated in the clean up of the devastating tornado that tore through our town on March 1, 2007, demolishing the high school and killing 8 students. The tornado demolished and/or condemned at least 300 homes.

Our Council offers a unique leadership and primitive camping experience that lasts for 7 days and 6 nights just prior to the beginning of summer camp each year. The program, Woodlore, is based in large part on the Wood Badge training offered to adult leaders. Our Scoutmaster, an Eagle Scout, who has attended Wood Badge, served on Wood Badge Staff, and in his youth attended a BSA program for youth leaders called Brown Sea Double-Two, has observed that the Woodlore program offers many of the same training and character building objectives as both of those programs.

Our Troop enjoys the strong support of the members of our Chartering Organization, Green Hill Presbyterian Church, a very active Troop Committee of which nearly every family has at least one adult that is a member, and many local and distant small and large businesses. Without this much support, Troop 150 would not have the ability to offer so many awesome opportunities to the Scouts.

Troop 150 is a very strong and active organization for the youth of our community. Since Troop 150 is located in Enterprise, AL, a large number of our members are associated with Fort Rucker, AL. We welcome all Scouts who transfer into our Troop and treat them as if they began their Scouting careers here. We are fortunate to have an extremely dedicated and active parent group comprised of nearly all of our parents. Our Scoutmaster, William Drummond and our Assistant Scoutmasters, work hard to train all our young men, enabling each to exceed his own expectations.

Troop 150 is a unit of the Menawa District of the Alabama Florida Council. The Ala-Flo office is located in Dothan, Alabama, about 20 minutes from Enterprise. Camp Ala-Flo, formerly known as "The Reservation" is located less than 10 miles from Troop 150's Scout Hut.
