Who Are We? An Introduction to The Troop....
18th Georgetown (North) is a school-based Scout Troop, supported by S.M. Sri Pinang formerly known as S.M Sri Inai, a private secondary school in Penang. Established in 1983, it has since became one of the best-known troops in Penang, despite its young age and the small number of Scouts in the troop. The troop will be celebrating its 23rd Anniversary in 2006.

The troop, itself, is run and managed by an executive committee which consists of the Scoutmaster and the Scouts. We have ten patrols and troop meetings are held every week, with additional training sessions arranged separately during weekends and the holidays.

Our troop is active in badge work and in participating competitions. Till date, 18th Georgetown (North) is proud of its heritage for being one of the most active troops in producing King Scouts, the highest honour for a Scout within the island.

Scouts in the troop are taught basic Scouting skills and self-development which includes character-building. As a member organization of the Penang State Scouts' Council, the troop pledges to uphold the standard of Scouting in Penang.
