About Us

Boy Scouts Troop 1160 offers a year-round adventure-based program designed to offer and encourage effective character, citizenship, and fitness training for boys age 11-17. We strive to provide the scouts with new and memorable experiences not found in other organizations. In addition to camping, Scouts and adult leaders enjoy activities such as rock-climbing and rappelling, canoeing, target-shooting, and more while accommodating the needs of today’s busy families.

Located and sponsored by New Horizons Church of the Nazarene, the Boy Scout Troop was founded in 2002, followed by the Cub Scout Pack in 2004. In the last 20+ years, our numbers have grown to include youth and families from Belton, Raymore, Peculiar, and Grandview.

Community service and involvement is a cornerstone for our unit, believing that it is an important part to help make them stronger. We have led flag and honor guard ceremonies, volunteer at fairs, assist with the younger Cub Scouts, and provide trail cleanups. It is wonderful to see how much our regular service hours and larger Eagle projects have helped local schools, parks, churches, and charities.

Since the Troop was chartered, we are proud to have helped many boys and young men grow into leaders of the community. Along with achieving the top rank of Eagle, many of our members also belong to the Scout honor programs of Order of the Arrow, Mic-O-Say, and completed the National Youth Leadership Training (NYLT).

The troop meets Thursday evenings from 7-8:30 pm at the New Horizons Church of the Nazarene or Belton New Horizons Church of the Nazarene – Home | Facebook located at 17200 Chestnut Dr, Belton, MO 64012.
