I've checked out other troops' web sites and notice that quite a few (especially back East) have their own Scout Hut or meeting place. We are quite crowded in the basement of a church so it hinders the activities the scouts can do at troop meetings in winter or bad weather.
It would be so cool to have our own meeting area where we could have large group games.

When a troop has a place it can call its own, I believe the scouts are more productive in meetings. Each patrol can have its own 'corner' and motivational items can be left displayed rather than removed after every meeting. An area with a high ceiling, such as a gym or open beam structure gives more room for activities. I believe we will be looking for new space in a year or so and that is what I'll be hunting for.
