Boy Scout Troop 146

Troop 146 offers boys age 11-17 opportunities for adventure, leadership, and excitement. Boys have opportunities to plan and organize meals, events, and achievement goals while filling several leadership roles.

In addition to camping, Scouts and adult leaders enjoy activities such as rock-climbing and rappelling, canoeing, target-shooting, and much more while accommodating the needs of today’s busy families.

The Scouting experience has no equal, and we welcome you to experience Scouting with Troop 146. Meetings are held Monday Evenings at 6:30pm at 431 North 16th Street, Oxford, MS.

Our Troop’s History

Our troop was founded in 1975 and is sponsored by St. Andrews Church. Since the Troop was charted we have had 80 Scouts achieve the rank of Eagle. Our Eagle projects have helped local schools, churches, and charities.

Scouting Events

Our most recent summers have taken us white-water rafting, mountain climbing in the Rocky Mountains, and week-long camps in Tennesse, and Georgia. Every year we try to squeeze in caving, biking, hiking, canoeing, wilderness survival camping, outdoor cooking competitions, shotgun shooting events, and orienteering.

Merit Badges

Merit badges are awards earned by youth members of the Boy Scouts of America (BSA), based on activities within an area of study by completing a list of periodically updated requirements. The purpose of the merit badge program is to allow Scouts to examine subjects to determine if they would like to further pursue them as a career or a vocation.
