An important announcement regarding our troop supporters and alumni members.
Troop 160 would like to thank the St Zachary parish, our fundraising supporters, donors, and our current and alumni scout families for everything you’ve done to support us throughout the years. We have made a lot of friends along the way and have very fond memories. The Troop has decided to merge with Troop 6 in Des Plaines. Anyone looking to join or support a scout group is encouraged to check out Troop 6 at First Congregational Church.

See you out on the trail ahead…

Tuesday & Wednesday check-in from camp. Busy days for scouts and adults. Our leaders won the trivia contest, two years in a row! Visited a farmers market ate ice cream at the local Graeter’s🤤. Also made some tin can lanterns. Scouts had their merit badge sessions and napped. Senior patrol leader & scoutmaster dinner never disappoints! Last night ate dinner in the campsite along with camp staff versus the dining hall. Desert was banana boats. Looks like I need to get some more hiking in😕
