Scouts BSA

Scouts BSA Troop #281 (for boys) meets every Tuesday night at 7:00 p.m., led by Scout Master George Cook. In summer, they meet at a nearby camp building on Elkhorn Creek; for the rest of the year, they meet in Ascension's Parish Hall. This is a very active troop. Check us out on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/troop281ky/. Contact Craig Aossey (caossey@gscottarch.com) for details about the boys' troop.

Scouts BSA Troop #1281 (for girls) was chartered in the first week of February 2019, sponsored by Ascension, affiliated with existing Troop #281 for boys. Girls who are age 11-17 may join the new troop. They will meet in Ascension's parish hall weekly, on Mondays at 6:00 p.m.  Interested girls and their parents/guardians are invited to contact Natalie Lile at 502-229-8403, (natalie@lilelaw.com).  

Venturing Crew #281 (for males and females aged 14-20, or 13 and completed the 8th grade) was formed in December 2019, also sponsored by Ascension. Venturing is an inclusive program through the Boy Scouts of America, operated through Venturing Crews - units of youth and advisors that meet on set schedules and plan activities and events for youth.

What is Scouts BSA?

For the first time in its 100+ year history, the iconic program of the Boy Scouts of America  was opened to young women as of February 1, 2019. Scouts BSA is a year-round program for boys and girls in fifth grade through high school that provides fun, adventure, learning, challenge, and responsibility to help them become the best version of themselves.

In Scouts BSA, young men and women go places, test themselves, and have one-of-a-kind adventures that can’t be found anywhere else.
