Visitors
Welcome to Troop 736
Our Troop home is at St. Michael's Church at 4491 Springfield Road in Glen Allen, VA.
We meet on Thursday evening from 7:00pm to 8:30pm.
Traditionally, We hold our annual Open House during the second week of October. However, anyone looking to become a member of our Troop is welcome and encouraged to visit us during any normally scheduled Troop meeting. Please contact our scoutmaster in advance to schedule a visit.
As we climbed the rocks that seemed to awkwardly dart out of the earth, we were able to truly experience nature in its entirety. The obvious grandeur of Seneca Rocks resonates in the minds of all who were in attendance. The formation was one that seemed only imaginary and almost unfathomable that it was actually there; looming over our campsite. The weekend was blessed with beautiful weather and it was truly an outing to remember. For seven hours the troop remained perched next to the bare face of the right side of the formation. The scouts were able to climb and repel as much as they wished and challenge themselves on tricky and difficult climbs. When the late afternoon ultimately crept upon us, we descended back down the mountain towards civilization. As the group reached the foot of the mountain we paused for a moment in an open field to take one last look at the giant we had been climbing on. The scouts on this trip were good examples of where this troop is headed. On this outing I could see the troop reach new heights. Literally.

Michael Muldowney of the Knights of Columbus (also the one offering the merit badges right now) has asked for our help. The Knights will be handing out God's Word books after Masses on Nov 15-16 and 22-23.
All scouts intending to continue with the troop need to re-charter this month. The fees for re-charter are $75 payable to Troop 736 and are due to Patti Kamper no later than Nov.
Congratulations to our Charter Organization Representative and Assistant Scoutmaster, Mr. Jim Wheeler, for completing his Wood Badge tickets and thus finishing his long, long, long...long (get the message Jim!!!) journey on his road to receiving his Wood Badge Beads.
