Welcome to Boy Scout Troop 230!

Scouts BSA Troop 230, Yardley, PA

Meetings: Every Tuesday 7:00 PM – 8:30 PM

Location & Sponsor: St. Ignatius Church, Yardley, PA.

We are a proud “boy-led” troop who attend Pennsbury, Neshaminy, Council Rock as well as private, religious, and home schools. 40 scouts work as a team enjoying trips, special events, and community service projects.

Scouts: We have diverse interests. We are football players, swimmers, baseball players, robotics competitors, band members ... regardless of personal interests we come together in scouting. Kudos to the 150 of our scouts who have earned the rank of Eagle over the last 51 years!

Parents: Troop leaders are supported by 25 moms and dads who make up our Scoutmaster Council and Troop Committee.

The Great Outdoors: An extremely active all-year camping and hiking program brings us outside to develop skills and friendships.

Amazing Activities: Besides summer camp, highlights include touring Washington, DC and NYC, climbing at GoApe!, camping and hiking Gettysburg, hiking the Appalachian Trail and Yosemite National Park, canoeing down the Delaware, white-water rafting the Lehigh, Caving, hiking Valley Forge, and attending our annual ski trip. The list goes on ... recently, we have worked towards our disability awareness, first aid, hiking, biking, wilderness survival, backpacking, engineering, welding, woodworking, American labor, communications, scholarship, entrepreneurship, family life, golfing, and environmental science merit badges. Six of our scouts sailed for a week in the Florida Keys, and nine in the Bahamas!

Troop 230 is part of the Tamanend District in the Washington Crossing Council and is a welcoming and supportive environment. Come visit us!

Biking to Yardley Ice House Tuesday Night

Posted on Sep 14 2025 - 9:01pm

This Tuesday night we are meeting at the church as planned at 7pm and riding bikes to Yardley Ice House.  Your scout will need to bring their bike and helmet, a headlamp, and cash for ice.  The boys will ride to the ice house and then return to the church at the end.  If your Scout chooses not to bike they can walk to the ice house instead.  If the Scouts bike they will accomplish the 2 mile requirement for the cycling badge.

Wreath Sale Fundraiser - COORDINATOR NEEDED!!!

Posted on Aug 26 2025 - 8:35pm

 

 

     As you may or may not know, our troop has a tradition of selling Christmas Wreaths as our main fundraiser.  This occurs the week of Thanksgiving and usually runs     for about 2 weeks.  We are in need of someone to coordinate the sale for the Troop this year.  After 3 years of running this, Mrs Frost has stepped down and moved on to committee positions.  She will work with the new coordinator to transition the new volunteer.  This can also be shared with a few people to make the workload easier. Please let us know if you are able to take this task on. 

Board of Review Night

Posted on Aug 26 2025 - 8:06pm

Board of Reviews will be held on Tuesday, September 30th during the troop meeting.  If you are ready for a BOR and have had your Scoutmaster Conference please sign up on the Website.  To ensure this night goes smoothly we will need parents to assist.
