BOY SCOUT TROOP 175 was chartered by Westminster Church in 1975. Scout Master is Tom (Doc) Macready and Assistant Scout Master is Tom Phillips. Presently 30 boys are involved in the troop. Troop 175
participates in monthly camping trips, summer camp and a challenging summer trip.
One of the tenants of scouting is service to others. The scouts annually collect for the Lane County Food Drive and help with church ground cleanups. Since 1975 over 92 boys have earned the Eagle Scout Award in this troop. Eagle Projects must give the scout leadership growth and provide community service. Many Eagle Projects have been completed at WPC which we are very grateful for. The troop has financially contributed to various needs at Westminster in appreciation for the support to Troop 175. Dan Call from WPC is a Committee Member & Merit Badge Counselor. Please look at our Bulletin Board and the display case for information about the scout troop.
Thank you for your support!

CUB SCOUT PACK 175 serves boys and families from 1st grade through the 5th grade. We are a community of 49 registered scouts and a team of leaders and committee members. The Cub Scouting program consists of developmentally appropriate activities aimed at developing character, community, and a healthy relationship with our surrounding world. Families contribute much to community service. The highlight of each year is the Pinewood derby races, held at Westminster.
Our scouts meet once per month to receive recognition and awards for accomplishments. In addition we receive helpful advice and wisdom regarding leadership within our pack, if needed. We very much appreciate the use of your building, and we especially thank the kindness and thoughtfulness of your staff!
