BSA Troop # 8

Troop 8 ...On the Eagle Trail...

Welcome to Boy Scout Troop 8. We have been chartered by the Vine Congregational Church since 1950. Larry Holmes has been our scoutmaster for 14 years and is a former Eagle Scout; he has earned the Silver Beaver Award (scouting’s highest award). He has served as the Cornhusker Council's District Chair and is now the VP of their Endowment Society. Troop 8 is a scout-run troop. At our weekly meetings, there is a flag ceremony, announcements, merit badge classes or other programs, and finally a closing. We also have a camp or outdoor activity monthly. Also, the new scouts are placed in a program that teaches the basics of scouting. We have the leadership, funding, and parental involvement to make a troop run. In conclusion, Troop 8 has over 100 Eagle scouts in its heritage and at the present time we have 50+registered scouts. You may fill out the Contact Us form for more info.
