Scouts BSA · 5th–12th Grade
Troop 311
A youth-led troop where scouts plan their own adventures, grow into confident leaders, and chase the trail to Eagle.
About the Troop
Scout-led adventure with real responsibility.
Troop 311 is a co-ed Scouts BSA troop welcoming youth ages 11–17 (or 5th-grade graduates). Following the merger of Troop 113 with Troop 311, our troop now provides a single, vibrant home for all scouts in the Springfield area to learn, lead, and grow together.
Our scouts plan and run their own program: monthly campouts, service projects, summer camp, high-adventure treks, and the personal journey toward Eagle Scout. Adult leaders coach from the sidelines — the scouts drive the experience.
