Welcome to Troop 36, based in Westport CT.

The Boy Scouts of America is one of the nation's largest and most prominent values-based youth development organizations. The BSA provides a program for young people that builds character, trains them in the responsibilities of participating citizenship, and develops personal fitness. For over a century, the BSA has helped build the future leaders of this country by combining educational activities and lifelong values with fun. The Boy Scouts of America believes — and, through over a century of experience, knows — that helping youth is a key to building a more conscientious, responsible, and productive society

Troop 36 congratulates Finn Martens on recently earning the rank of Eagle Scout.
For his Eagle project, Finn coordinated a restoration of the parking lot at the Westport VFW Post 399, which included repainting the spaces to improve the facility for local veterans.

🥾🌲 Sleeping Giant State Park Hike

Our Scouts spent the weekend taking in beautiful views and tackling some fun, challenging terrain along the way.

Before hitting the trail, the Scouts learned about the 7 Principles of Leave No Trace and the hand signals that go along with them, putting those principles into practice as they explored.

A great day of hiking, learning, teamwork, and enjoying the outdoors together!

Calling all middle schoolers – come learn what it means to be a Scout.
Scouting is family, fun, friends and a lifetime of adventure. It’s the place where young people can grow to become their very best future selves. If you have a 6-8th grade girl or boy who likes camping, hiking, outdoor adventures and hands-on life skills, come find out about Troop 36. Founded in 1949, Troop 36 is Westport’s first and only Scouting America Family Troop, welcoming both girls and boys. The Troop typically meets once per week, schedules at least one weekend outing per month (camping, hiking, or backpacking), and participates in several community service projects throughout the year.
The Troop will be hosting a welcome campfire in the courtyard at Saugatuck Congregational Church, 245 Post Road East, on Monday, August 31st at 7:00 pm for girls and boys in 6-12th grades.

Troop 36 scouts had an incredible weekend at Camp Workcoeman for the Connecticut Rivers Council’s Semiquincentennial Camporee, celebrating 250 years of American independence! Scouts rotated through 12 skill-based stations in a Revolutionary War spy mission, met a George Washington historical interpreter, and capped the weekend with a campwide campfire and Scoutmaster cook-off featuring Washington’s favorite foods. What a memorable way to mark America’s 250th!

What a great day of service! Troop 36 scouts joined Sustainable Westport for their annual Mattress Recycling Drive, helping to recycle 24 mattresses and box springs and keeping them out of the landfill.

Each year, our scouts pick up mattresses from Westport residents who are unable to drop off at Earthplace. This year, as in years past, Troop 36 made up a significant share of the total mattresses collected at the event.

Thank you to everyone who signed up to volunteer and to Sustainable Westport for organizing this important program!

Troop 36 is partnering with Sustainable Westport for their Mattress Recycling program on Saturday, May 2nd. Drop off your used mattresses or box springs in good condition to Earthplace from 8:30 to 11:30 am.

Troop 36 is offering a pickup service (for Westport redisents) if you're unable to drop them off.
