Welcome !

Troop 853 is sponsored by the F.A.S.T Lions and meets at B. Gale Wilson School.  We are an open troop that gladly accepts youth either from Cub Scouts or those who have never had the experience of Scouting.  Of course adults are equally welcome and encouraged to participate.  Our troop works on the principle of Scouts leading Scouts with adults as guides.
