Do you have a 5th to 8th grader who loves to camp? Is looking for leadership opportunities? Wants to do good in their community with friends? Scouting America might be for you! Our Open House is Monday March 9th!

Troop 5 is a welcoming Boy and Girl troop that goes camping every month (yes we even went last month!) is youth led, and open to all. We have an amazing program this year, including advancements, biking, backpacking, canoeing, treks, sailing in the Caribbean(!!) and our capstone backpacking in the Rockies! We also attend the NEIC summer camp in the North Woods.

But, we also understand how busy all our scouts are, so each scout can figure their own way. Want to camp but aren’t fussed about advancement? No problem. Driven for Eagle? Our Patrol Leader Council will guide you through the ranks.

Join us for our Open House in the Basement of First Presbyterian Church of Wilmette at 7:30 on Monday and find out what we are all about.
