Troop 19 Registration

    Registration is now open for the 2026-27 Scouting year! 

 

Registration process includes:

  • Scout Code of Conduct
  • Expectations of Parents
  • Volunteer opportunities
  • Health form upload (you can use forms used for summer camp or Philmont, and no doctor’s signature is required)
  • Late pick-up policy acknowledgement
  • Registration form and payment.  Dues have not increased.

 

We want to ensure that Scouts is accessible to all youth. If registration costs present a hardship for your family, please contact Mr. McKenna to discuss financial aid.

Please make registering by September 14th a priority. Scouts must register and pay their dues in full prior to registering for any troop events or activities, and our volunteers waste a lot of time chasing for late registrations.

St Rose Stewardship Day: September 12th, 2026

We encourage all Scouts to participate in St. Rose of Lima Stewardship Day, a valuable opportunity to give back to our community. We will be refurbishing a couple of Saint Rose’s picnic tables from 8:30-1:00. We encourage all Scouts to participate to show our gratitude to St. Rose and give back to our community!

 

Participation in community service is a requirement for advancement, and this is a great way to earn those hours while making a meaningful contribution.

 

Families are welcome to attend! Please note that siblings must be accompanied by a parent. We are also in need of adult volunteers to help supervise Scouts and assist with project coordination.

 

Registration details will be sent soon.

Late Pickup Policy

Effective immediately, Troop 19 is implementing a Late Pick-Up Policy for all troop meetings, campouts, and other activities. Our troop depends on the adult volunteers who generously give their time and energy to support our Scouts, and activity end times are established with the expectation that Scouts will be picked up promptly. This policy is intended to reinforce shared expectations among troop families, promote accountability, and respect the time commitments made by our volunteer leaders. Under this policy, a $50 late pick-up fee will be assessed each time a Scout is not picked up at the designated end time of a troop meeting, campout, service project or other troop activity. The fee will require payment before further activity registrations will be possible. We are instituting this policy to encourage timely pick-up, consistent with the Troop’s expectations among troop families and to respect the time commitments made by our volunteer leaders. 

 

If you have any questions, please reach out to the Troop Committee Chairperson, Frank Reda.

Hi, my name is Ivy and I will be restoring the Cannonball House's (Springfield NJ) garden back to an 18th century medicinal herb garden and rehabilitating the gravel pathways. This project benefits the community by preserving history, beautifying the space, and teaching about both colonial life and herbal medicine.
