Boy Scout (ScoutsBSA) Troop 447 was founded in 1973. We are part of the Baltimore Area Council and we are in the River Hawk District (which comprises most of Anne Arundel County). Our sponsor is St. Philip Neri Church, which provides us with a meeting place and offers other support to the unit. Since its original charter, about 700 scouts have been members of the troop. During our 50 years, 84 scouts have become Eagle Scouts.
