As we reflect on the year past and the year to come, my wish for you is, wherever you are and whatever it is you do, may you soar like an Eagle. We are SO PROUD of our 2024 and 2025 Eagle Scouts! All the best to all of our Scouts and families and to each of you in 2026!

Thanks to Trooper Haney & Mr. Webster for bringing the Kentucky State Police Drug Education Unit and leading the substance abuse program for Troop 419. Several of our scouts made progress on their Second Class rank requirement and everyone learned about the dangers of these substances.

There's no place like home, but coffee in a rocking chair on the porch of Stamler Hall overlooking sunrise in a foggy lake at Camp McKee sure is nice! Fantastic OA Induction weekend and so glad to share the experience with so many wonderful people! Troop 419 is proud to welcome three Scouts and two Scouters as Ordeal members of the Order of the Arrow and two Scouts as Brotherhood members!

Join Enchanted Forest Wildlife Rescue of Kentucky for their Grand Opening on September 20! They're a fantastic organization and we've enjoyed partnering with them for service and conservation projects!

⛰️✨Troop 419 Heads to Philmont! ✨⛰️

Six years ago, Troop 419 was just beginning its journey—full of hope, energy, and the dream of one day reaching Philmont Scout Ranch.

That day has finally come.

After years of campouts, hikes, leadership growth, and learning what it means to be prepared, Troop 419's crew is embarking on their first-ever Philmont high adventure trek! 🥾🔥

This isn't just a trip—it's a milestone. A testament to what dedication, teamwork, and perseverance can achieve.

This past Tuesday, at our regular meeting, several Scouta who are working on the Reading Merit Badge hosted a book swap, complete with fun decorations, DIY bookmarks, and book-themed (and super cute) snacks!

Philmont Crew 618-G-01 (most of us, anyway) braved cold, rain, and high winds to get in 8.2 miles hiking at the Berea Pinnacles in Kentucky! Those gummy bears sure tasted good after all the elevation gain. Lots of ups, lots of downs, and LOTS of fun!
