Tay House Scoutmasters

While Tay House is a boy-run troop, it is the job of the scoutmaster to ensure that the troop runs smoothly. The scoutmaster servers as a mentor, teacher, and guide to the scouts, helping them learn their scout skills and develop their leadership as they progress through the ranks. The scoutmaster ensures that new scouts are welcomed into the troop and that graduating scouts are recognized for their service. The scoutmaster ensures that the troop runs efficiently and that it meets its obligations to the scouts and to the community.

Here we recognize all of the past scoutmasters of Tay House Troop 19. They have show tremendous dedication to the troop, all serving without having a son in the troop.
