ABOUT TROOP 888

Chartered November of 2011 by the Divine Mercy Parish, Troop 888 is a Boy Scout Troop in Gardner, KS.

Regular meetings are held Monday evenings at 7 p.m. at the Sacred Heart Catholic Church. A campout is scheduled each month and community service and fundraising opportunities are also a regular part of troop involvement.

The scouts in Troop 888 do their best to demonstrate the scout oath, follow the scout law, live the scout slogan, and employ the scout motto.

If you are interested in finding out more about Troop 888, Boy Scouts, or scouting in general, we invite you to attend one of our regular Monday night meetings. You may also email or call one of our experienced adult leaders through the request information page.
