Welcome to the Troop 8027 website!

Troop 27 has had a long history in Edwardsville for many decades. It was founded as a troop for boys but ceased operations in 2009. It is being resurrected as a troop for girls in the Edwardsville area under the new Scouts BSA program. The "8" in front designates it as a troop for girls.

The troop is sponsored by Eden Church and has a "brother" organization: Troop 1031 (a troop for boys also sponsored by Eden). Troop 31 will help the new troop with equipment needs and with any other items to get the program underway. Both units will operate independently.

The new program is scheduled to begin on February 1, but we hope to have the troop roster in place for scouts and adults in advance so the girls can start meetings and participating in activities right away. Those that fill out forms in advance will be informed via email about organizational meetings, trainings, and other important information leading to the creation of the troop.

If you wish to learn more, please send us an email and we will be happy to get back to you!
