BSA Boys Troop 1978
Vienna, Virginia
Philosophy
For boys who want to push their limits and explore their world, our scout-led troop provides opportunities for challenging outdoor adventures and real-life leadership experiences.
St. Mark’s independent girl and boy troops share a common culture of high adventure and leadership training. They also share resources and coordinate joint activities, which gives them early exposure to real-world teamwork and interaction.
Our program is …
SCOUT-LED
Scouts plan, teach, and execute all meetings and campouts. Adult mentors offer coaching in the background. This framework is the foundation for developing resilience and grit because it allows scouts to have a safe place to try, fail, and then try again.
HANDS-ON AND GOAL-ORIENTED
Weekly activates and campouts are fun, but not for fun's sake. They are carefully planned to develop skills in self-reliance, character, physical fitness, and leadership. Scouts continuously challenge themselves mentally and physically as they advance.
FOCUSED ON COMMUNITY SERVICE AND AWARENESS
Scouts in Girl and Boy Troops 1978 are known within our community and beyond for their character, service, and leadership skills.
BUILT ON ENTHUSIASTIC VOLUNTEERS
Parents and community members are actively engaged in creating a well-run, well-rounded program.
