Who We Are
American Heritage Girls of Chattanooga Troop TN0629 was established in 2018. We are a youth ministry based out of the Basilica of Saints Peter and Paul Catholic Church that serves the youth of the Chattanooga Catholic churches and surrounding areas. Our mission is to give the youth of all of our parishes an alternative scouting option. Our troop gives girls the traditional scouting experience of camping, outdoors activities, and fellowship with a strong emphasis of faith and service.
