Troop 738 is a Scouts BSA troop in the Damascus/Kemptown/Green Valley/Monrovia, MD area. We have an active, adventure-focused troop with an emphasis on developing strong youth leaders and outdoor skills. 

 We use the patrol method and in general we view the adults as mentors, logistics and safety. Scout leadership includes the Senior Patrol Leader, Assistant Senior Patrol Leader and scouts that have moved on from patrol leader positions or are older and have attained (or almost) attained Eagle.

See our Troop Calendar
The troop camps monthly from September through May and includes things like hiking/backpacking, wilderness survival, whitewater rafting, skiing or tubing, caving, biking, cooking, and more. 
 
We provide all troop gear including tents. Scouts need sleeping bags/mats and some sort of bag to carry gear on normal campouts. We do try and have tent buddies and prefer that scouts double up (sometime triple up) and use troop tents.

Our troop historically has done a 4 year rotation of high adventure. Philmont, Sea Base, Northern Tier and a Summit Bechtel. This allows every member of the troop at least one opportunity to get to the 4 national high adventure camps. Over the last 12 years we have sent at least 2 crews to each. We feel that high adventure is extremely important to keeping the older scouts engaged!
