Boy Scout Troop 186, South Windsor, CT Troop 186 meets every Wednesday at 7 p.m. at the Philip R. Smith Elementary School on Avery Street in South Windsor.

Boy Scout Troop 186 is a member of the Hockanum District of the Connecticut Rivers Council, one of four Scout councils operating in the state. Our Scoutmaster is Randy Olson. Troop 186 balances the fun and excitement of traditional Scouting activities, such as camping and hiking, with the spirit of learning and achievement reflected in merit badges and rank advancement. More than 60 members of Troop 186 have attained the rank of Eagle Scout. All interested boys between the ages of 11 and 20 are welcome to attend a meeting to see if they might be interested in joining.

The four methods of Scouting—ideals, patrols, outdoor programs, and advancement—play a vital role in shaping a Court of Honor. During this ceremony, we celebrate the ideals of Scouting by recognizing the achievements of our Scouts, fostering teamwork through patrol participation, emphasizing the importance of outdoor experiences in earning merit badges, and highlighting the advancement process that leads to rank achievements.

Another fantastic fundraiser that provides more than just support for the scout's activities, it serves as an opportunity for camaraderie, teamwork, and honing those communication skills as scouts engage with diverse groups of people.

Such a valuable experience! And as usual, we deeply appreciate our leaders and families who tirelessly contribute to the troop's success and help make these events possible.

A special celebration for Troop 186 today as our very own Scoutmaster, Mr Miller, earned his “Marriage Badge”. The troop was so happy to crash the wedding of Mr & Mrs Miller and show them both our support ♥️

🚀🌌 We’re sending our very best wishes to Eagle Scout and JNW alumnus Jack Hathaway, who launched today as part of NASA SpaceX Crew-12 on his way to the International Space Station. Jack earned his Eagle Scout rank with Troop 186 South Windsor, CT, and spent part of his Scouting journey right here at J.N. Webster — hiking our trails, building friendships, and developing the leadership that defines both Scouting and space exploration. From campfires to orbit around the Earth, his journey is an incredible testament to where hard work, curiosity, and the values of Scouting can lead. We couldn’t be prouder — clear skies and a successful mission, Jack!

The troop theme for November is wilderness survival and today was the leaf blower challenge. Would your emergency shelter survive Hurricane Miller?

Fall 2025 Court of Honor! 🌟

We started in the daylight and ended under the stars, celebrating the Scouts hard work. Over 67 merit badges earned and 9 rank advancements! These Scouts continue to impress with their dedication and growth. Also, a huge thank you to all our incredible Leaders, whose time and guidance make these opportunities possible.

It was also our annual family picnic, where we came together as a community and Scouting family.

This morning the Scouts gave their time to do some Fall cleanup with our sponsor organization. When asked what it meant, one Scout said, “A Scout is loyal.”

Loyalty is showing up, giving back, and supporting the people and organizations that support us. The Scouts made a meaningful contribution today and really put the Scout Law into action.
