The Texas Trails Council is a
non-profit community based youth serving organization that serves
Brown, Callahan, Coleman, Comanche, Eastland,
Erath, Fisher, Haskell, Jones, Lampasas, Mills, Nolan, North
Runnels, San Saba, Shackelford, Stephens, Stonewall,
and
Taylor counties in North Central Texas. The council
provides programs in each community for boys in the first grade
through age 20 and coed programs for youth through various
Scouting Programs. The Texas Trail Council, Boy Scouts of America,
issues charters to community organizations to operate local
Scouting Units.
The Council supports Cub Scout Packs, Boy
Scout Troops, and Venture Crews which are operated by chartered
organizations. The Council trains adult volunteers, provides
insurance protection, operates Camp Billy Gibbons and Camp
Tonkawa, provides council wide programs and activities and raises
funds necessary to maintain the organization.
United Ways
in our area provide part of the operating budget. The balance is
raised from donations, Friends of Scouting, popcorn sales,
endowment income, special events and user based fees. |
