Welcome to Troop 1's Website!

Troop 1 Badge

Troop 1: the good, the bad, and the really weird. From gnarly snowboard dudes to webheads, this is not your father's Boy Scout Troop! Our home is Mill Valley, California. We have about 65 Scouts and about a dozen adult leaders. If you like hiking, camping, rock climbing, backpacking, all kinds of outdoor activities in all kinds of weather, then Boy Scouts in general, and Troop 1 in particular, is the place you want to be.

Our camping and event program goes year-round. We do a lot of camping at Camp Tamarancho, an 850-acre camp on Mt. Tamalpais that belongs to the Marin BSA Council. In the past couple of years, we've also gone scuba diving in Florida, canoeing in the Boundary Waters of Minnesota, hiking the high desert of the Philmont Scout Ranch in New Mexico, and hiking and camping in Scotland with a troop of Scottish Scouts.

This web site was written and is maintained by the webheads of Troop 1 as a service to the troop, the parents, and anyone who stumbles into our cyber campsite and is interested in our program. If you're out surfing the web, feel free to wander around our cyber campsite or send an e-mail to the current scoutmaster of the troop at scoutmaster@troop1marin.org if you'd like more information.

You are also welcome to come to one of our weekly meetings and check us out in person. We meet every Thursday night at 7:30 at Scout Hall, 177 East Blithedale, Mill Valley. Visitors are always welcome.

Be sure to visit About Us for an overview of the kinds of things we do, then go to our outings page for details on our outings program. You can also check out our calendar to see what we've planned for the rest of the year.
