Cathedral Boy Scout Troop
Troop 74 is a Scouts BSA troop that the Cathedral has sponsored since 1951. Scouts BSA is open to boys who are 11 or have finished 5th grade and goes until age 18. The Troop meets weekly during the school year on Mondays in the Scout Hut at 7:30 p.m. We do a monthly weekend campout during the school year and attend a week of Scout summer camp at Camp Woodruff in Blairsville each year. Older scouts often go on a Scouting high adventure trip each summer, such as Philmont and Sea Base. We have several Eagle Scouts each year.
Contact Keith Dumke, kdumke@cathedralATL.org, to learn more.
Sunday EYP (Episcopal Youth Parents)
After dropping your youth off for EYC at 6 p.m., you are invited to park and walk across the street to La Fonda and join other youth parents for dinner and fellowship! We hope to do this every Sunday during EYC. For questions or if you would like to RSVP, please contact Keith Dumke, Director of Youth and Young Adult Ministries, kdumke@cathedralATL.org. Canon Julia Mitchener will be joining the group as well.
Every youth is welcome to participate in the Cathedral’s youth ministry program. Whether it is faith formation, acolyting, youth choir, mission and service work, ski trips or rafting adventures; each is sure to find a place here.
