Come see us on a Thursday night.

The best way to know Trail Life is to visit. Drop in, meet the leaders, and let your son experience the troop firsthand — no commitment, no cost to look.

Welcome

Meet us before you visit.

About a minute and a half from our troop — who we are, what we do, and why we'd love to have your family come see it.

How It Works

Three simple steps onto the trail.

Come visit

Show up any Thursday at 6:30pm. Come a few minutes early so we can welcome you and introduce the leaders.

Meet the troop

Watch a meeting in action, ask every question you've got, and see where your son fits.

Sign up

Create your Trail Life Connect account, pay annual dues online, and get outfitted. We'll guide you the whole way.

How to join

What to expect on your first visit

A warm welcome

A leader will greet you at the door and walk you through the evening.

Opening ceremony

The troop opens with the pledge, prayer, and the Trail Life motto.

Skills & activities

Hands-on time in patrols — knots, first aid, games, and badge work.

No pressure

Visiting is always free. Take your time deciding if it's the right fit.

"Train up a child in the way he should go; even when he is old he will not depart from it."

Proverbs 22:6

When your family is ready, joining is two steps: create your Trail Life Connect account, then pay dues online. Step-by-step instructions are on our Join page — or we'll walk you through both at a meeting.

Let us know you're coming

Tell us a little about your family.

Optional — but it helps us welcome you well. A troop leader will reach out before your visit.

Prefer to just stop by? You're always welcome — no form required. Questions about cost? See annual dues.
