Scouts

St. Alphonsus is the proud Charter Organization to Cub Scout Pack 125 and Troop 322 of Scouting America.

Scout is one of St. Alphonsus’ youth ministries.  Scouts implements the Scouting America program which is one of the nation’s largest and most prominent values-based youth development organizations.  Scouting provides fun youth programs for boys and girls that build character, teach responsibility, personal communication skills, and develops personal fitness . For more than 100 years, Scouting has helped build future leaders by combining educational activities and lifelong values with fun.

Pack 125 (Cub Scouts): Grades K-5 can join at the Cub level.  A Cub Scout is the foundation of our scouting organization and involves the whole family.  Parents or adult guardians pitch in to plan fun and memorable activities.

Troop 322 (Scouts):  Young boys and girls may join the Troop at any time during the year, if they are at least 10 years old, currently in the fifth grade and register on or after March 1; or at least 10 years old and have earned the Arrow of Light Award; or at least 11 years old (but not yet 18).

Scouts learn about Citizenship in the Community, the Nation, the World, and Society; Communication and Leadership Skills; Cooking; Camping; Hiking; and Biking.  Scouts develop Personal Financial Skills, Personal Fitness Skills, and Family Life Skills.  Scout skills help our youth discover what talents and skills God has given them.  If a Scout completes the journey to Eagle, there are scholarship and professional employment advancements available to Eagle Scouts. 

Scouting is an extracurricular activity that provides a safe environment and is facilitated by Christian leaders and families.  Duty to God is a intricate part of Scouting and all Christian faiths are welcome to join our Pack and Troop. 

Meetings are Monday evenings from 6:30 to 8:00 at the St. Alphonsus PAC Building.
