Troop 151 was originally formed in 1922 as Georgetown Troop 1, and except for a brief interval in the late 60s has been serving Georgetown and surrounding communities ever since. The troop presently consists of about 50 boys – large enough to support a wide variety of activities, with something to appeal to almost any boy’s interests. Our troop (like all good scout troops) utilizes the patrol method in its operation. This means the boys really do run the troop.
If our meetings seem chaotic, realize that’s to be expected as it is a natural result of being boy-led! We camp at least once a month. Most campouts are short-term, usually beginning on a Friday afternoon or evening and ending on Sunday afternoon. We also offer summer camp in June, winter camp in December, and usually at least one high- adventure camp for older scouts each year.

Troop 151 has a philosophy of being focused on outdoor activities (especially camping!) and having fun together. We have found that if we put our energy into these, that the boys’ advancement and growth will follow naturally. We offer a full scouting program wherein each boy can learn outdoor skills, have a good time, but still have an opportunity to experience leadership commensurate with his experience, interest, and available opportunities. He’ll learn the skills needed to be a real outdoorsman, and eventually will learn to teach and lead other Scouts. Our Scouts plan and run their own program with encouragement and guidance from the adult leaders. Our list of Eagle-scouts is long and most boys in the Troop do achieve that rank if they stay active and involved.

Troop 155 is an outdoor-oriented troop which focuses heavily on backpack and primitive style camping. The Troop is boy led, with older Scouts directing the flow of meetings and campouts. Since being chartered in 1975, Troop 155 has conferred the Eagle rank to 58 Scouts. Troop numbers typically average around 30 Scouts and 15 adults. The troop camps at least once a month and frequents state parks within a 3 hour radius of Georgetown. Typical campouts involve hikes of two to fifteen miles in a weekend. The Troop has an active Order of the Arrow group and active Eagle Scouts participating in the meetings and campouts.

Troop meetings: The troop meets on the 2nd & 4th Tuesday of each month at the Liberty Hill VFW in the downtown area of Liberty Hill, Texas. Meetings start promptly at 7:00 p.m. and end between 8:00 and 8:30 p.m.

Troop 196 is an advancement- oriented unit. We have an excellent record of encouraging every boy to become an Eagle Scout. Teenage boys need encouragement and someone to push them hard to get their community service projects completed. However, we do realize that many boys are involved in activities other than scouts. We work around school, sports and community schedules. So don't feel like you have to give up something to join us!

Troop meetings: Every Monday from 7:00 to 8:30 p.m. at Crestview Baptist Church at 2300 Williams Drive. We meet in the Fellowship Hall in the east end of the facility. Park in one of the east parking lots and take the sidewalk to the entrance of the Fellowship Hall. We don't meet when there is a national or GISD holiday.

Troop 405 has been chartered since May 1986 with 152 Eagle Scouts since the troop was formed. We are a youth led troop featuring the complete Scouting program. Webelos are welcome to visit at any time but give us a few days notice so our Senior Patrol Leader will be ready for visitors. We are a "full uniform" troop. This means our Scouts don't wear blue jeans to troop meetings.

In June 2011, we attended summer camp at Camp Sol Mayer near Menard. In 2012, we will attend summer camp at Lost Pines during the week of June 17-23.

Since 1989, we've had at least one annual high adventure trip. We go to the Philmont Scout Ranch in New Mexico for backpacking or horseback riding as often as possible. In June 2011, we participated in the West Texas Ranch adventure, a horseback program at Camp Sol Mayer. We also had a group of Scouts and Ventures taking part in a sailing, snorkeling and SCUBA adventure in the Bahamas during July. In August 2012, we'll have three crews taking part in Philmont's backpacking program. Normally, Scouts must be at least age 13 to attend high adventure trips. For Philmont, Scouts must be at least age 14 by September 1st of the year attending or have completed the 8th grade and be at least age 13.

Our campout at Enchanted Rock in November is an excellent campout for Webelos and parents to attend. Several of our other monthly campouts are also appropriate for Webelos except those involving canoeing, kayaking or rafting (Webelos aren't allowed to canoe, kayak or raft in most instances). For additional information or to schedule a visit to a troop meeting or campout, contact Scoutmaster Calvin Gray.

Troop meetings:

Our troop is different than most troops in that we use the theme of the Lewis & Clark era and Mountain Men to introduce and grow Scouts. Our summer camps are 22 - 32 day adventures through the western US, Canada and Alaska. We also take Spring Break trips to the Big Bend, McDonald Observatory and Fort Davis in Texas. Tomahawk throwing, fire by friction, black powder shooting and many activities related to Mountain Men!
