Welcome to Troop 157!

Boy Scout Troop 157 in Round Rock, TX carries a long tradition of providing a quality scouting program for area youths. As part of the Chisholm Trail District, Troop 157 is active in the promotion and participation of many area scouting events including summer/winter camps, Webelos Woods, High Adventure, Cavalcade, Jamborees and many more.

Our troop stresses the importance of the camping experience with planned monthly camp outs during the fall, winter and spring. Every camp out includes a program that's geared towards the growth and personal development of our scouts. Not only do they learn skills which will help them throughout their lives, they have a whole lot of fun too!

Lastly, we are a youth led troop, so our scouts begin to develop leadership skills early on. Many earn the rank of Eagle; most go on to complete their college education; all of them develop friendships and positive memories that last a lifetime.

We meet at 7:00 PM most Mondays at:

First United Methodist Church
Family Life Center (near the west-most parking lot)
1004 N. Mays
Round Rock, TX 78680

Send-A-Smile Program by Ian Goben

Send-a-Smile is a program that was started at the San Angelo State Supported Living Center. It is where people can create cards, pictures, and drawings to send to residents there. The reason this is happening is because they have been quarantined for a few months, and they have not been able to see their family or friends, and they cannot visit the nearby town. The staff there wants the residents to know that people are still thinking of them even during these hard times. If you guys would like to mail some drawings, pictures, or messages that would be amazing! Make sure to mail to:

The Troop has signed up for the Lost Pines Online Summer Camp.

https://www.bsacac.org/activities/summer-camp/

Lost Pines is managing these merit badge classes much as it would a regular camp - meaning - the Troop registers the Scouts and signs them up for the merit badges they would like to take. Classes will run Monday-Thursday, with a closing campfire Thursday night. The cost is: $20 per merit badge ($40 for Eagle Quest and First Aid).
