Amherst Boy Scout Troop 22 serves the youth of Amherst and Mont Vernon, NH. It is part of the Arrowhead District of the Daniel Webster Council of the Boy Scouts of America.
Troop 22 is organized into several Scout Patrols. Adult guidance is provided by the Scoutmaster and Assistant Scoutmasters. The Parents Committee provides additional oversight.
