Tom Wirzburger
Mr. Tom joined Troop 60 as an Assistant Scoutmaster in May of 2015 with his son (Brandon) when they crossed
over from Pack 60. An Eagle Scout and Arrow of Light Scout in his own right, he brings over 30 years of Scouting
experience with him. Mr. Tom is also a member of the Order of the Arrow. A very active Scouter, at the Unit,
District, and Council level, it’s safe to say if you have a question, and he doesn’t have the answer, he knows
someone who does. Mr. Tom enjoys camping, fishing, hiking, and lashing and hopes someday to go to Philmont.
