History

Boy Scouts was founded back when Baden Powell created a handbook for the army of England.  Boys started reading the book and started doing the knots and the survival skills.  Then Baden Powell came up with the idea of Boy Scouts.  Baden took 12 boys of to an island just off the coast of England.  Then one day a man from America came to England for some business, the day was foggy and he couldn't find his way.  Then a boy in a neckerchief and full uniform.  The boy helped the man on his way, but when the man from America tried to give him a tip, the boy refused and said that it would be against his ways of doing a good turn daily.  This scout is still unknown.

This troop was formed in 1946. The scoutmaster was Paul Kelly, (deceased) our first Eagle Scout was John Story. Since 1946 Troop 207 has been a very strong troop. There has been at least 15 scoutmasters total.
