Welcome to Troop 177, serving the Oklahoma City, Edmond and Deer Creek area within the Oklahoma Boy Scouts of America - Last Frontier Council's Eagle District.

Boy Scouts is an outdoor program designed to develop character, citizenship, and fitness for boys ages 11 through 17. Through the advancement program and peer group leadership, Scouting helps a boy develop into a well-rounded young man. The Eagle Scout Award, the highest rank in Scouting, is recognized around the world as a mark of excellence.

In the Last Frontier Council, Boy Scouts may look forward to Boy Scout Camping opportunities and many other District Activities. In Boy Scouts, youth take responsibility for the activities of the troop. By planning and organizing activities, they develop teamwork and learn to lead as well as follow. After Boy Scouts, many young men transition into the Venturing program.

Varsity Scouts is a program for young men ages 14-17. It provides options for young men who are looking for high adventure or challenging sporting activities and still want to be a part of the advancement opportunities and values development of the Boy Scouts.
