Independence Boy Scout troup bikes Katy Trail

Starting their summer with energy, five Boy Scouts and six leaders of Troop 223 from the Community of Christ Stone Church trekked 80 miles along the Katy Trail, from Sedalia to St. Louis, by bicycle the first week of June.

Scout Master Jim Terril, accompanied by parents and car drivers Clint Littleton and Jason White, led the Scouts on the trip, riding and camping out at places along the Missouri River despite heavy rains.
