WHO WE ARE

  • ABOUT US SLIDE SHOW (2023-2024):  link ]

We are a medium size troop in Burke, VA focusing on personal growth, leadership development, citizenship training, community service, and character building for our Scouts.

We have a strong group of Scouts supported by an energetic and engaged team of adult leaders and parents, many of whom are active or former military and Federal service. Our troop regularly earns the highest recognition for Boy Scout troop quality and District recognition for outstanding Scout and adult leaders.

Troop 1344 was chartered in the Patriot District of the National Capital Area Council on Veteran’s Day, November 11, 2005, and is sponsored by the American Legion Post 176 in Springfield, Virginia.

We meet Monday nights 7 PM at Cherry Run Elementary School (occasionally at Burke United Methodist Church).
