The door

Northminster Presbyterian Church

7720 Alaska Ave NW, Washington, DC 20012. Look for the rough stone church with the red arched door and the green copper spire.

Church office: 202-829-5311. That number reaches the building, not a Scout leader.

What to expect

Arrive a few minutes early. An adult will meet you. You can sit in, then decide.

Troop 24

The first night

A short script, then you can leave.

Come as you are. A parent stays in the room. Nobody will ask a child to join on the spot. If the night feels right, use the Pack 24 invitation on the join page and a leader will follow up.

National Capital Area Council’s published membership fee is $165 for the year. Local dues and assistance are explained on the join page.
