Boy Scout Troop 557

Troop 557 (T557) is a scout led troop. This means that the scouts decide what to do. They also organize the events and execute them. Every year as a troop, we have a planning weekend where we chart out activities for the upcoming year. This teaches leadership, organization, and planning skills. The Troop has one of the highest eagle rates in the council. In September alone, there were two Eagle Scout Court of Honors. Come experience our troop first hand by participating in the upcoming events or going to a scout meeting
