Troop 56 is a Scouts BSA troop for boys between the fifth grade and high school focused on outdoor activity and high adventure. The troop camps monthly engaging in activities such as hiking and canoeing. Each summer the troop attends a week long summer camp where boys have opportunities to learn outdoor skills, earn merit badges, and engage in activities like rafting and horseback riding. Troop 56 is home to a strong high adventure program for older scouts and sends crews to one of the BSA high adventure bases (Philmont, SeaBase, Northern Tier, Summit) on an annual basis. With a long history in the Collierville community Troop 56 has been continuously chartered since 1982 and is proud to have over 100 Eagle Scout alumni.

We meet on Monday nights at 7pm at Collierville Christian Church at 707 New Byhalia Rd. If you are interested in visiting or learning more please reach out via email at [email protected].
