Troop 562 is a year-round, boy-led, Boy Scout Troop. We are Chartered by First United Methodist Church of Slidell, LA, located in the heart of the city. Founded in 2000, Troop 562 has become a well known and popular Troop in Slidell for its Leadership and its "can do" attitude.
Numerous opportunites for advancement are available to every Scout in the Troop. Activites include both long trips and day activites. (Examples: Camping in Georgia, Tennessee, South Carolina, New Mexico, Texas, Mississippi, Louisiana, and Alabama). These outings, along with our meetings, are designed to give each boy an experience that cannot be provided by any other youth organization.
Troop 562 is lead by the Patrol Leaders Council (PLC), which is made up of the elected Scout Leaders. The PLC is assisted by the Scoutmaster of the Troop. The Scoutmaster is the guide for the Scouts and gives them advice and counsel on all issues the Scouts may have.
The Troop Committee is the "Board of Directors" of the Troop, and provides the necessary support for the Troop Program.
