Troop 566's Scouting program has been active for over 25 years at OLL. Scouting helps youth develop academic skills, self-confidence, ethics, leadership skills, and citizenship skills that influence their adult lives.

Most importantly it gets our kids outside, camping and having fun in nature, with like-minded Scouts and families creating memories that last a lifetime. Our Troop is open for male and female students, grades 6 to 12, ages 11 to 17.

In today's world of social media it is vital give your child the benefits of interacting with others, live and without phones. Join Us for adventure.

  • Boy Scout Troop 566: Meetings are held on Tuesdays at 7:30pm in Parish Hall West.

  • Cub Scout Pack 566: Meetings held on Tuesdays at 7:30pm in the Parish Hall Center.

Our Lady of the Lakes Parish has Eucharistic Adoration on the First Friday of each Month starting with the Exposition of the Blessed Sacrament at 9am and closing with the Reposition at 9pm. During Eucharistic Adoration, the faithful pray to Jesus Christ, who is present in the Blessed Sacrament.

While it is true that you can pray to God anywhere and that He is always within you, it is especially powerful to adore Jesus in the Eucharist. In the presence of the Eucharist, we pray to the power and sacrifice that it represents — the body of Jesus, who gave His life so that we may live. We invite you to come and spend some time with the Lord.
