The purpose of the Boy Scouts of America, incorporated on February  8, 1910, and chartered by Congress in 1916, is to provide an educational program for boys and young adults to build character, to train in the responsibilities of participating citizenship, and to develop personal fitness.

Our Troop has a long, proud tradition dating back to 1962 and we are one of the largest troops in the Baltimore Area Council. We have a full, year-round program that includes weekend camping during the school year, a week long summer camp and typically several high adventure trips each summer.
