Troop 53 Turns 100
2024 is the 100-year anniversary of Troop 53! To celebrate, the old troop website was found from the archives and remade to what you see today!
If you are a current or former member of the Troop, and wish to add a post to this site, please checkout the editor at https://edit.bsatroop53.com/. Posts can be photos of camping trips or outings, Eagle projects, Dutch oven recipes, or pretty much anything related to the troop.
