Welcome!

Troop 237 serves Frankfort Square and surrounding communities. The troop serves the needs of Hilda Walker Intermediate School and our sponsor, the Frankfort Square Park District. Through our active boys, active leaders, and active parents we provide a safe, fun environment that teaches our young men the values and morals they need to become outstanding citizens in our community and nation.

Troop 237 meets at 7:30 PM every Monday at the Frankfort Square Park District building located at 7540 West Braemar Lane, Frankfort, IL.

FUNDRAISER FOR NEW TRAILER REPAIRS

Our troop is currently having a title search completed by the State of Illinois on a 14' used trailer that was donated. Hopefully the title will come back clean. There are a few minor repairs, some cosmetic work and a new coat of paint that will need to be done. If anyone knows anyone who would be willing to help with the painting, PLEASE, contact any Scout leader or committee member. Time wise, it's still quite a bit before it would be ready for use.
