About Us

Troop 7 is a scout-run troop with monthly scouting activities scheduled throughout the year. Currently, there are over 25 active Scouts in Troop 7, in three different patrols, supported by experienced Scout-elected boy leaders and trained adult volunteers. Most Scout members are from the Greater Alton and Godfrey area. Troop 7 scouts have voted to attend a week-long summer camp each year at locations across the Midwest and have scheduled a high adventure trip to Philmont Scout Reservation. The Scouts from Troop 7 are active in our community through service hours, volunteering and eagle scout projects. Each new Scout has the opportunity to advance in Scouting through monthly Troop activities.
