Charter Partner: Windwood Presbyterian Church,10555 Spring Cypress Road, Spring, Texas 77429

Troop Mission:

Troop 626 is committed to providing opportunities for the individual growth of young men, by supporting the boy-lead troop to get all of our new scouts to First Class in 1 year, and to provide high-adventure, leadership roles, and an excellent merit badge program for our older scouts to stay interested and involved while they develop into fine young men on their road to Eagle Scout and beyond. We have monthly campouts to support our advancement programs, and we organize groups to attend week-long summer camp and winter camp programs which are great for earning merit badges and for reinforcing the BSA patrol method.
