Troop 853 is a very active scout-led troop. We typically have 1-3
activities every month and camp at least once per month throughout the
year. The scouts choose the activities they want to do and the parents
make it happen. Our troop has produced many Eagle Scouts throughout
it's history and continues to produce at least a couple more Eagles each
year. Our Scouts are active in Order of the Arrow (Shawnee Lodge) and
several of our scouts are members of O.A. Ceremonial Teams. The troop
participates in a week-long summer camp program every year, sends
scouts to National Youth Leadership Training, and organizes
high-adventure programs each year including such exciting activities as sail-boating, Philmont
Scout Ranch, Northern Tier (MN), Sea Base, Alaska, scuba diving, and
Shiloh National Military Park.
