Welcome to the new website of Troop 423
Troop 423 was first chartered in 1955, and has continued to serve the Old Bethpage and Plainview area for 50 years.
We are a non-denominational troop whose members represent the wide diversity of our community and we encourage our scouts to learn from and respect that diversity.
We meet every Thursday night from 7:30 until 9:00 P.M. at Good Shepherd Lutheran Church's Gymnasium located on Central Park road in Plainview, NY. Good Shepherd is our sponsoring organization, providing us with a wonderful meeting place, and storage facilities for our equipment.
Feel free to check out our upcoming events on the Troop Calendar.
Spring Court of Honor
On May 27, 2010 at 7:30 pm the troop will hold its 2010 spring Court of Honor. Troop leadership reminds you to make your phone calls for scoutmaster conferences and have your paperwork in order for board of reviews.
