Scouts BSA Troop 854
American Legion Post 323
Wentzville, Missouri
Troop 854 was established in June 2021 and is a very active all-female scout troop! We typically have 1-3 activities every month and camp at least once per month throughout the year. The scouts choose the activities they want to do and make it happen with adult help. The troop participates in a week-long Summer camp program every year, sends scouts to National Youth Leadership Training (NYLT) and organizes high-adventure programs which include Philmont Scout Ranch (NM), Northern Tier (MN), Sea Base (FL), and The Summit (WV).

Prepared. For Life.®
For more than 100 years, it has been in the heart of every Scout who ever overcame one of life’s challenges. It is the value of being prepared — the core of Scouting and a statement that inspires a lifetime of character and service.
As we look to a new century of Scouting achievements, we light a new fire in the next generation of Scouts. We shall instill in them the honor and integrity that comes with being a Scout. We will build their character and ensure they are prepared for something more.
We will prepare them for life.
