The committee is made up of parents who meet once a month to support the Troop and is responsible for conducting the business of the Troop, setting policy, and helping the Scoutmaster and Scouts with the outdoor program and other planned activities. The committee is the link between the charter organization, Williamsburg United Methodist Church, and Troop operations. The committee also has the responsibility to provide adults for weekly Boards of Review (BoR).

It is encouraged that at least one of each Scout’s parents or guardians be active within the Troop. Roles within the committee can be great or small. By actively participating in the committee, parents provide support to the Scoutmaster Corps, the Scouts, and the Troop to ensure a successful BSA program is being provided. Committee members get an opportunity to develop friendships with other Scouting parents and their families. But most importantly they get the chance to enhance their sons’ Scouting experience by actively sharing in their sons’ Scouting adventure.

- Carry out the policies and regulations of the Boy Scouts of America.
