Troop 25 has been Scouting in St. Louis since 1946. We are chartered with Scouting America — the organization many families still know as the Boy Scouts — and we run two troops: Troop 25B for boys and Troop 25G for girls. Both meet on the same night, in the same place, and share the same adventures.
Where we meet
We meet Wednesdays from 6:45–8:15 PM at Watson Trail Park , 12450 W Watson Rd, Sunset Hills, MO 63127. Our meeting location changes by season. Check the current location before your visit. Our seasonal sites are all within a few minutes of one another in Sunset Hills and south county — see maps and directions for the current one.
Communities we serve
There is no boundary on a Scout troop. Any family that can make a Wednesday night is welcome, and these are the communities our meeting site is closest to.
Lindbergh Schools communities
Troop 25 meets inside the Lindbergh Schools boundary, so these are the closest communities to a Wednesday meeting.
- Sunset Hills
- Where the troop currently meets. Watson Trail Park and the Sunset Hills Community Center have both hosted meetings.
- Crestwood
- Just north along Watson Road, about five minutes from the meeting site. Crestwood has hosted a Court of Honor and parents meeting.

Looking for Girl Scouts in St. Louis?
Worth being clear, because the names are confusing: Troop 25G is not a Girl Scout troop. Girl Scouts of the USA is a separate organization, and in this area that is Girl Scouts of Eastern Missouri.
Troop 25G is a Scouts BSA troop for girls, chartered with Scouting America. Girls in Troop 25G earn the same ranks and merit badges as the boys in Troop 25B, work toward the same Eagle Scout rank, and join the same campouts, high-adventure treks, and service projects. If you are comparing the two programs, you are welcome to visit us on a Wednesday and see ours before you decide.
Visit before you join
Come see a meeting. There is no cost and nothing to sign — bring your Scout, watch a meeting run by the youth leaders, and ask questions. Plan a visit or read the new parent guide first.
