BSA Troop 820 is sponsored by the East Portland Moose Lodge. Troop meetings are every Monday night from 7:00PM – 8:30 PM at the Moose Lodge located at 16411 NE Halsey, Portland, OR 97230. Please use the back door.
Troop meetings are planned by the Scouts at the weekly TLC meetings. By Scout request, at least one meeting a month is dedicated to advancement. The Scouts are different ages and different ranks so they may work on rank advancement and/or merit badges.
Troop meetings are broken into these sections:
- Skill Session: The scouts work on and participate in a skill that they will benefit from at some point.
- Patrol Meeting: This time is used to plan menus for campouts, election of patrol leaders and complete projects needed for their patrol.
- Game Time: The favorite time of the troop meeting is game time.
Troop 820 has four patrols: The Dragons, Flaming Arrows, Badgers, Cobras and Sharks. The patrols rotate each week in leading the flag ceremony, Oath & Law and service.
Adult Committee Meetings are held once a month.
The current leadership is as follows:
- Senior Patrol Leader: Ed Curtis
- Asst. Senior Patrol Leader: Thomas Ring
- Scoutmaster: Dave Dace
