About Us

Troop 6 has been molding the young men of the Speed/Sellersburg area since 1920. We are a scout led troop, and we are very active. We promote a family atmosphere as we grow, and would love to have you as part of our Troop Family!

Trailblazer Program

The Trailblazer program is the First Year program in Troop 6. Scouts entering the troop will start working immediately on Scout Rank, with the goal of earning First Class in their first year.

At a Scouts first summer camp, they will spend part of their day immersed in the Trailblazer program, learning basics of scouting such as:

  • Cooking

  • Knots & Lashings

  • First Aid

  • Camping Skills

  • Orienteering

  • Nature Study

  • Citizenship

Older Scout Opportunities

For those scouts who have already reached the plateau of First Class, Troop 6 offers numerous opportunities for high adventure and merit badge achievement. From 6:30 to 7:00 (Before our regular meeting time) merit badges are offered, including many required for Eagle.

High Adventure Trips

High Adventure trips are a key part of scouting, and Troop 6 embraces that. We are a very young troop, but are starting to plan for some high adventure trips for the future such as trips to Pensacola Florida, Canoeing in Missouri/Minnesota, etc. Come join our family and help us plan our next adventure!

Troop 6 Junior Leader Training

Troop 6 offers a yearly Junior Leader Training (JLT) course for our youth leaders. This is staffed by the older youth and the Assistant Scoutmaster Corps.
