The Troop consists of 36 Boy Scouts between the ages of 12 and 17. The Troop will be in Jamboree Subcamp 15 at Fort A.P. Hill. The Troop will attend the Jamboree and visit Washington D.C. for tours of our Nation's Capital. For further information about the National Jamboree visit the Boy Scouts of America website page on the Jamboree and the Jamboree website. In the Spirit of Scouting, both Troops 1502 and 1503 are looking for brother Contingent Troops with whom to share some activities and meals.
Bill trades patches.
The patch was designed to have a representation of the North Carolina state flag in a strip running across the middle of our patch, with our Council Totem, the Hornet's Nest, in the center with the traditional flint lock rifle and Native American spear behind the Hornet's Nest. A representation of the jamboree logo is superimposed on the Hornet's Nest. To represent Charlotte, NC, we have placed the Queen City's crown in the lower left portion of the patch. We have Mecklenburg County Council across the top and 1997 National Scout Jamboree written across the bottom of the patch to identify ourselves and commemorate the event. Carolina Panthers, we have the Panthers Logo on the right hand side of the patch.
