Welcome to Troop 437! Proudly sponsored by American Legion post 437 in Westford Massachusetts.

Are you an Arrow of Light scout looking for a Scout Troop to cross over to? or maybe you are new to Scouting and want a great Troop to join?

Either way, Troop 437 welcomes all youth to come and experience the adventure of scouting! Visit one of our meetings to experience what Scouting is all about and what makes Troop 437 a great Scout Troop.

We meet every Thursday evening when school is in session. Meetings start at 7:00 pm at the American Legion Post 437 at 114 Dunstable Road. Feel free to contact us at info@westfordtroop437.us and let us know you are coming or to contact us with any questions. For more information about the troop, you can start at our About Us webpage.

There are two great youth leadership training opportunities offered over the summer, Brownsea II and NYLT. These are geared for scouts 14 or older that are currently in or looking to get into leadership positions. Both programs are week long camp experiences focused on leadership training.

If you are interested in either of these programs please contact the scoutmaster as soon as possible.

We have had to make some changes due to various issues around venue availability.

In a nutshell:

We are swapping the trip destinations and activities for May and June. The May sailing trip will be held in June and the June zip-line trip will be held in May.

New Scout Parent Orientation Meeting - THIS WEEK

Posted on Apr 11 2012 - 11:40pm

Message:

It looks like the weather will cooperate to allow us to hold the parents meeting in the legion hall. In case it turns out that the weather prevents the scouts from being outside then I will send out mail tomorrow afternoon.

There will be meeting for parents of new scouts (or any parent who wants a refresher) to introduce them to how the troop runs, advancement, trips, summer camp, and any other topics you would like information on. This meeting will be during the troop meeting on Thursday April 12th with a rain date of Thursday April 26th (the parents take over the function hall while the boys hold their troop meeting outdoors - rain would change those plans). At least one parent from each family should plan on attending.
