  • Make a Difference

    Scout-age youth experience dramatic physical and emotional growth. Scouting offers them opportunities to channel much of that change into productive endeavors and find the answers they seek for many questions.

  • Outdoor Skills

    In the outdoors, youth have opportunities to acquire skills that make them more self-reliant. They can explore canoe and hiking trails and complete challenges they first thought were beyond their ability. There is no greater teacher than the great outdoors.

  • Timeless Values

    Scouting programs instill in youth the values found in the Scout Oath and Scout Law. Scouting helps youth develop academic skills, self-confidence, ethics, leadership skills, and citizenship skills that influence their adult lives.

Track Your Progress

Scoutbook online advancement system

Scouters can submit their ranks, merit badges and awards online. You will find this method to be easy, convenient, and accurate because you will enter the information yourself. After your information is entered, Unit leaders can approve all of your earned items and it will automatically update directly into the BSA’s official youth member record.

Scouting is a game with a purpose

Scouting provides youth with an opportunity to try new things, provide service to others, build self-confidence, and reinforce ethical standards. These opportunities not only help them when they are young but also carry forward into their adult lives, improving their relationships, their work lives, their family lives, and the values by which they live.

MISSION

Troop and Crew 254 are traditional scouting units. We operate according to the BSA established Aims and Methods of Scouting. With over 35 years of scouting history behind us, Troop and Crew 254 are well-trained members of the Scouting community. We are committed to making a difference in the Hurst-Euless-Bedford community. Scouts and Venturers often participate in community service activities such as volunteering time and collecting food for the hungry.

PURPOSE

A goal of Scouts BSA and Venturing is to help youth develop into honorable adults. Scouting’s values can be incorporated into one’s home or school. Scouts have many opportunities to learn skills of leadership, of the outdoors, and of life. Each Scout decides what they will learn and how quickly they will do it. As a Scout progresses, the value of their achievements will be reinforced through recognition and accomplishments during outdoor adventures.

OUR PLAN

Scouts BSA and Venturing use several fundamental methods to meet a Scout’s hope for fun and adventure, and to achieve Scouting’s aims of encouraging character development, citizenship, and mental and physical fitness. A Scout Troop and Venturing Crew functions best when all these methods are employed.
