Welcome to Boy Scout Troop 511!

Welcome to Boy Scout Troop 511's web site. Boy Scout Troop 511 in Austin TX is sponsored by St. Matthew's Episcopal Church, and was founded in 1972. Over the years, we have had more than 170 young men become Eagle Scouts. We have a lovely outdoor program, including about 10 outdoor outings a year, summer camp and a high adventure trip for older Scouts. 

If you're interested in our troop, we encourage you to come visit us at one of our meetings! We meet every Tuesday at 7:00 p.m. in Huffman Hall on the St. Matthew's Episcopal Church campus. We love to have guests any time. Some meetings are more interesting for visitors to come to, so feel free to contact us if you're wondering which meeting would be best for you to come and check out Troop 511.

You can also request more information or sign up online!

Scoutmaster: Michael Dolan
Troop Committee Chair: Jennifer Juday

Parents Activity Planning Meeting Coming Up!

Posted on May 2 2024 - 10:22pm
 Parents, the Annual Activity Planning Meeting has been scheduled for Thursday, May 16, 7 PM at Waterloo Ice House on Burnet! This is the annual meeting of parents to work on who will do what committee jobs this coming year, and who can own various outings. Please RSVP! If this is a bad night for too many people, we can look at other options. Help wanted: Things to think about: we need people to shadow the roles of Advancement Chair and Treasurer this year. Also, we need someone willing to take on being a Merit Badge Counselor for Scouting Heritage, as the Scouts have requested a session on that this summer (a bunch of them have partials). 
Note: We can easily set up an additional table as a kids table (just let me know and I'll tell Waterloo!).
Waterloo Ice House, 8600 Burnet Rd, Austin, TX 78757
