This week is the kick-off for the Troop elections.  The SPL will present an election overview and then open up nominations for next year's SPL.  On October  9th, the SPL candidates will present their visions for the Troop, and then voting will commence.  Once the SPL is elected, the patrols will elect their patrol leaders for the coming year.

All the newly elected leaders will take office starting at the Fall Court of Honor.

Do you want Troop events to automatically appear on your favorite calendar app, including Google Calendar, Outlook, Yahoo Calendar and other iOS, Android and Windows apps? 

Simply go to Scout Troop 437 | Calendar Sync to start the process.  Choose your preferred calendar feed format, and then follow the instructions provided.  Super easy and another way to easily remember troop meetings and important troop events!

If you have any questions or problems setting up the calendar feed, email info@westfordtroop437.us or talk to any leader at a troop meeting.

The Troop dues for the new scout year are $30 per scout.  These dues help cover the operating costs of the Troop including awards, supplies, and other expenses in running the Scouting program.  

Please submit your dues on or before Thursday, September 25th.  Payments can be made via Venmo, check, or cash.

Please note: Scouting America (BSA) is starting to collect registration fees for Scouting America membership directly from families - the Troop will no longer be handling the national membership fees.

Troop 437 does not want any Scout or adult to miss out on anything Scouting has to offer due to an inability to pay.  If any fee is a hardship for your family, please reach out to one of the Scoutmasters, Committee Chair, or Troop Treasurer to discuss available options. Any requests will be kept completely confidential.

This summer we had 33 scouts attend summer camp at Camp Wanocksett! It was an awesome week!

For 2026 we will return to Camp Wanocksett during the same week - week 5 - which will be July 26th through August 1st.

Please mark your calendars, as we want even more scouts to attend and experience summer camp next year!

Hello Scouts and Parents! 

School is starting, and the scouting will once again return to regular weekly meetings.  Our first Troop meeting of the year will be on Thursday, August 28th.

As usual, our Troop meetings will be held at the American Legion Post 437 (114 Dunstable Rd) in the 2nd-floor function hall.  They start at 7:00 pm and run until 8:30 pm.  Scouts should arrive 5-10 minutes before the start of the meeting to help set up and prepare for the opening flag ceremony.   Parents are encouraged to come inside around 8:20 pm for the closing ceremony and closing announcements.
