Troop Organization and How It Works

Troop 354 is a youth-led troop built around the patrol method. The Senior Patrol Leader (SPL) leads the troop, supported by the Assistant Senior Patrol Leaders (ASPLs) and other youth leaders. Each patrol is led by a Patrol Leader, and the Patrol Leaders’ Council (PLC) plans troop meetings, activities, and events. Adult leaders provide guidance, safety, and support to help Scouts succeed.
