We try to camp monthly, with a wide variety of locations on our agenda. The different locations are chosen by the senior boys to more directly meet our training needs and to keep expenses low. In fact, we have some of the lowest expenses in the area.
Our adult leaders are all experienced with years of scouting under their belt per individual. We also work closely with several local packs of cub scouts and participate in civic duties around the area as well. Please contact us at www.TROOP838CYPRESS.org or 414-331-3321.

We do high-adventure camping at Philmont and Seabase. Our advancement program has enabled scout to achieve the coveted rank of Eagle Scout at 10 times the national average rate.
We see scouting as a practice run on adult life. Scouts learn about leadership and teamwork through having to work together in the field. We learn about responsibility through fund-raising activities that have allowed the entire troop to pay for their own summer camp each year.

BOY SCOUTS OF AMERICA - COPPERHEAD DISTRICT
For 100 years, Scouting programs have instilled in youth the values found in the Scout Oath and Scout Law. Today, these values are just as relevant in helping youth grow to their full potential as they were in 1910. Scouting helps youth develop academic skills, self-confidence, ethics, leadership skills, outdoor skills and citizenship skills that influence their adult lives.
-
Try new things.
- Provide service to others.
- Build self-confidence.
- Reinforce ethical standards.
Scouting provides youth with a sense that they are important as individuals while promoting activities that lead to personal responsibility and high self-esteem. As a result, when hard decisions have to be made, peer pressure can be resisted and the right choices can be made.
Scouting provides a rewarding experience for boys ages 5 to 21. Scouting through the local Packs and Troops teach outdoor and life skills which help our youth Be Prepared. Your area is serviced by the BSA Sam Houston Area Counsel - Copperhead District which includes 23 Cub Scout Packs (boys 5 to 10 years old), 13 Troops (boys from 11 to 18 years old) and 10 Venturing units (boys and girls from 14 to 21). Our Units typically meet weekly.
Many of our units are supported by the local Elementary Schools including: Birkes, Copeland, Duryea, Fiest, Hemmingway, Holmsley, Horne, Jowell, Lowery, Metcalf, Owens, Postma, Robinson, Sheridan, Tipps, Walker and Wilson.
