Troop 230 is an active boy-led troop chartered with St. Peter’s United Methodist Church in Katy, Texas. We hold our Troop Meetings every Monday, 7:00-8:30pm at the Deren-Huff Scout House (across James E. Taylor High School) and via Zoom for virtual participants. Email us at t230katy@gmail.com if you are interested in joining the troop.
