Scouts BSA Troop 145
Scouts BSA Troop 145 is chartered by Veterans of Foreign Wars Post 5311 in Christiansburg.
Scouts BSA Troop 145 is a year-round program for young men 11-17 years old that provides fun, adventure, learning, challenge, and responsibility to help them become the best version of themselves.
In our troop young men go places, test themselves, and have one-of-a-kind adventures that can’t be found anywhere else.
Troop 145 meets on Mondays at 7:00 PM. Depending on the activity, Boy Scouts will be located at either 490 High Street VFW Post Hall or the 220 West Main Stree St. Paul United Methodist Church Activity Building.
Every Scout is a member of a Scouts BSA Troop. Troops are divided into Patrols. Each patrol has around 6 to 12 young men and is led by the Patrol Leader and his assistant. The Troop is led by the Senior Patrol Leader, his assistant, and a staff of other young men such as the Quartermaster, Historian, Webmaster, Chaplain, and others.
The Scoutmaster is the adult in charge of the program, aided by Assistant Scoutmasters, and the Troop Committee, serving in various positions such as Unit Advancement, Training, Fundraising, and Treasurer.
Scouts advance in rank as they learn skills, earn merit badges, and complete service projects. They must demonstrate that they live by the Scout Law, the Scout Oath, and show good Scout Spirit. They participate in Troop activities such as campouts, and a week-long summer camp.

Scout Activities: Pictures say a thousand words!
Happiness doesn't come from being rich, nor merely from being successful in your career, nor by self-indulgence. One step towards happiness is to make yourself healthy and strong while you are a boy so that you can be useful and so you can enjoy life when you are a man. Robert Baden-Powell
