We assume that you are shopping around comparing units. In fact, we encourage it!!! If you are already a member of a different troop in the area and you are not happy there, then we encourage you to work with your existing unit to try and solve any problems! However, if you are ready to quit Scouts completely then be sure to check OUR TROOP out first. Take a look at our entire website. Be sure to look at our past and future Calendars. Below are some more reasons to join our team: We are a family! Our pictures show what we are and tell the best story. We are PROUD of our GREAT Scout Troop and we are willing to show it off!!! In order to be successful you have to look at the future. Our past has been bright... our future is even brighter. Our Web Site (of course) Do the other units in the area have a Web Site? E-mail your friends and relatives to show them pictures of what you are doing in Scouts. Troop 374 is proud to boast that it is the 1st Troop in St. Louis to have it's own "Domain name". We keep it up to date. Birthdays and last minute changes can be found online!!!. Just remember: www.troop374.org We have 70+ Eagle Scouts. Troop 374 has a STRONG advancement program!!! We have 70+ Eagle Scouts and 30 of them have been under the current leadership. Our meeting facility is top notch. We meet at North County Christian School a stable school in the area since 1962. Along with this facility we have access to several other meeting rooms. We have all the equipment you'll ever need. Our Troop has enough equipment to supply several units!!! In addition, how many other Troops actually OWN their own TRUCK? WE DO!!! And we use it to store and transport the equipment! (Other Troops frequently ask us to borrow things from us when they find they forgot or damaged something important.) We have year round programming. Troop 374 is one of the few Troops in the area that has year round programming. We have activities and campouts in the winter, spring, summer and fall. Our program is outstanding! Because we have a troop where the Scouts actually plan the program we have a great time. Participate in:
Eagle Scout benefit. Every scout that earns Eagle Scout in our Troop before age 17 gets $250 towards admission to a high adventure event similar to Philmont. If you are not familiar with Philmont, it is roughly a $450-$500 admission! Our Haunted House. Do you know of any other Scout troops that have their own Haunted House? Join our Troop and be part of the SCARE! NO SELLING CANDY BARS DOOR TO DOOR!!! Troop 374 has one of the BEST fundraisers!!! We sell Christmas Trees! The customers COME TO US! And they are happy to buy from us! We have great leaders. Troop 374 has nearly 10 leaders at each Tuesday night meeting. Several of our leaders grew up in the Scouting program and are Eagle Scouts.
