Yahoo! Group

In October, we announced the start of a Yahoo! Group for communicating with Scouts, Leaders and Parents of Troop 627. We are encouraging everyone to sign up today. Postings to the group will be private, and only registered members can view them. Sign up today! Click HERE to subscribe or log in to our group: "troop627vt". Registraion will take several steps. Read the e-mail carefully, because you are required to respond back to the Yahoo! server to confirm your e-mail address is valid. If you don't respond, you will not be registered. Also, once you initially register with Yahoo!, you can CHANGE your e-mail subscription address to point to your home or work e-mail, and you can then receive notes directly to the account that you use every day. |

Troop 627 was chartered in 1963 and has been serving the local community in many ways. Cub Scout Pack 620 (Underhill) and Pack 621 (Jericho) feed Troop 627, making it one of the largest troops in Vermont. Our proud sponsor since 1963 has been the Underhill / Jericho Fire Department.
Troop meetings are held every Wednesday at 7pm at the Browns River Middle School on Steam Mill Road. Three or four Court of Honor's are held during the season which usually take the place of a normally scheduled troop meeting. These are held at a local church or town hall where scouts are publicly recognized for their accomplishments. Families are encouraged to attend these events.
Activities are planned for each month to provide for an enjoyable experience along the advancement trail. Older boys may also join our Venture program which offers a wide variety of high adventure activities.
In an effort to improve troop communications, Troop 627 manages a web site on the Internet along with our Land of Champs District in the Green Mountain Council. Bookmarks to the Troop 627 main web page are identified as "Scout Troop 627 - Jericho/Underhill VT".
