Webmaster: Gary Bland

Our Troop of 42 active Scouts is located in Waukee, Iowa. Our charter sponsor is Waukee United Methodist Church where we meet most every Sunday evening from 6:30-8:00pm.

We are in the Mid Iowa Council but also participate in the Pony Express Council through summer camp at Camp Geiger and Mic-O-Say.

We have participated in high adventure trips including bicycling the limestone Michelson Trail through Mt. Rushmore, canoeing the Canadian Boundary Waters, backpacking through the Double H High Adventure Ranch in New Mexico and canoeing the Buffalo River in Arkansas.

This year's high adventure, although dampened by rain, included caving the Mystery Cave and touring historic Forestville in southern Minnesota, kayaking the Upper Iowa River of Decorah, exploring the cliffs of Wyalusing State Park in Wisconsin and climbing on the rocks and in the stream of Backbone State Park in Iowa.

Congratulations to our newest Eagle Scouts Nate B, Mike K, Joel P & Josh B. Job well done!
