"On my honor I will do my best to do my duty to God and my country and to obey the Scout Law; to help other people at all times; to keep myself physically strong, mentally awake, and morally straight." has been recited by Boy Scouts since 1910. Our Troop has been committed to keeping the promise since 1959.

| Scoutmaster's Message: |
Troop 89 is an award-winning Troop that closely follows the Patrol Method, relies on Scout leadership, and has an active Camping program.
Troop 89 has been meeting at St. Louis Catholic Church for over 50 years. As a medium–sized Troop with about 38 Scouts, we currently operate one high school patrol, one middle school patrol, and two new scout patrols. Our Webelos crossovers make up new Scout patrols in the Spring. Our Troop is very active in the Capitol Area Council. We support Webelos Woods, compete in Camporee, and attend Lost Pines Summer Camp. We support National Youth Leadership Training (NYLT, a.k.a. Silver Pines) and send scouts as often as possible.
