Troop 469 would like to welcome anyone interested in visiting our Scout Hut. Troop 469 is located at the northwest corner of Louetta Drive and Jones Road. We would like to thank our Charter Organization, Lakewood United Methodist Church, for their continued support and guidance.

Troop Meetings are Mondays at 7:30 - 9:00 pm in the Scout Hut behind LUMC. Everyone is invited to attend/visit Troop 469. Come encourage Scouting.

The troop would like to thank Tony Collins, President of Turbine Generator Maintenance, Inc. for donating the two storage containers, which are used by the Cub Scouts and Boy Scouts to store all our valuable scout items. The containers free up space inside and outside the Scout Hut.
