The mission of the Boy Scouts of America is to prepare young people to make ethical and moral choices over their lifetimes by instilling in them the values of the Scout Oath and Law.

Boy Scout Troop 321 meets nearly every Monday evening promptly at 7:00pm in the Family Life Center of Smithfield United Methodist Church. Eligible for boys aged 11 to 18, our troop is a boy-led unit with guidance from several leaders as needed. Troop 321 is a Quality Unit Award recipient in multiple years located in the Trailblazer District of the Longhorn Council. The troop makes every attempt to camp at least once a month, year round. There are several opportunities for the boys to serve the area, community, and council performing service work. There are many activity and outing opportunities for the boys to participate in as well. Troop 321 was originally chartered in 1961, making it the first Boy Scout Troop in the Smithfield Texas area. The troop has a rich history of earning various awards at the district and council levels, including the past two Spirit Awards at the annual spring Trailblazer District Camporee.
Troop 321 welcomes you to stop by for a visit at any time on Monday evenings from 7:00-8:30pm.

Scout Oath		Scout Law
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.		A Scout is: Trustworthy Loyal Helpful Friendly Courteous Kind   Obedient Cheerful Thrifty Brave Clean Reverent

First a curl of birch bark as dry as it can be,
Then some twigs of soft wood dead from a tree,
Last of all some pine knots to make a kettle foam,
And there's a fire to make you think you're sitting right at home.*
