This annual ski, snowboarding and snow tubing trip is a great way to enjoy winter fun with fellow scouts and family! After a full day of activities, scouts camp out at Camp Strang. It is also a great way to earn your Snow Sports Merit Badge.

With Veteran's Day on Friday, stars and stripes will soon blanket Fairview Cemetary thanks to the Boy Scout Troops and Cub Packs of West Hartford. Each year Troop 146 places American Flags at the gravesites of veterans.
Troop 146 is excited to show photos from their trip this past summer. Please take a moment to experience some of their adventure through the adults and scouts eyes that went on this high adventure.
We meet Thursday evenings from 7:15 - 8:30 PM at the West Hartford United Methodist Church on New Britain Avenue. Come by and check us out to see if we're the troop for you.

T146 Basecamp - WHUMC
Not your typical derby. Steeped in a tradition since 1949, Scouts make a sledge (sled-like equipment transport) and race through a course that has stations where patrols are tested on their Scoutcraft skills and their leadership abilities, earning points towards a total score. The troop with the highest score wins the derby!
