Welcome to Troop 889 of the Tall Timbers District, Sam Houston Area Council, Boy Scouts of America. We are chartered by Christ Church United Methodist and in 2008 we celebrated our 10th year.Troop 889 is a boy-run troop. The troop currently has 92 boys and 54 trained adult leaders on our committee and Scoutmaster corps. We camp a minimum of 20 nights per year, but we also attend Camporee, visit several options for summer camps per year, plus participate in Winter Camp. Our camping trips include fishing trips (with a fish hatchery tour), rock climbing trips, hiking trips, canoe and water trips, bicycling campouts and spelunking/cave touring trips to name a few. In 2009 we had a large contingent of Scouts headed to Philmont Scout Ranch, three crews to Florida Sea Base in 2010, and have future trips to Philmont and Northern Tier scheduled as well.
