Boy Scout Troop 27 was established at St. Francis in 1953. In its almost 70-year history, many young men have been trained in the basic values of duty to God, duty to others and duty to become a contributing member of society, as the troop has served as an extension of parish activities.
In its history, over 95 young men in Troop 27 have attained scouting’s highest rank, the Eagle Scout. Over 75 of those Eagle Scout ranks have been obtained in the last 20 years. The Eagle rank is normally only earned by about 4% of scouts, but the program at St. Francis has been very active and robust for the past several decades. Our Troop goes on monthly outings, Summer Camps and high-adventure outings, such as Philmont, Northern Tier and Seabase. We also participate in local charity events, such as food drives.
Troop 27 Meetings are held at St. Francis School on Mondays from 7:00 – 8:00 pm in the St. Francis gym (September through June). For more information about Troop 27, please contact Tom Langeland, our Scoutmaster at aatroop26@gmail.com, Brian Nitkiewicz, our Committee Chair at bnitkie@gmail.com, or John Dunlap, our Charter Representative at jhdunlap@ameritech.net.
