Welcome to Troop 2024

Scouts BSA Troop 2024 welcomes all boys and girls in the 6th-12th grade with or without scouting experience within the Cranbury-Plainsboro and surrounding areas. We believe in creating a positive and safe environment where scouts can mature into young responsible adults, serving in leadership positions as they embark on the path to Eagle Scout.

Troop 2024 offers a wide variety of interesting and challenging activities combining fun, enrichment skills, leadership and self reliance for boys and girls ages 11 to 18. Activities include learning outdoor & survival skills, leadership skills, citizenship, volunteer service, outdoor cooking, hiking & compass/map skills, camping, STEM, and merit badge topics of their choosing. 

Scouts BSA Troop 2024 is part of the Scouting America Mercer Area District (formerly Boy Scouts of America) within the Washington Crossing Council. Troop 2024 is proudly chartered by the Princeton STEM Academy located in Plainsboro New Jersey.

We believe scouting is a true adventure and hope that all of you can be a part of the adventure too!

We like to believe we keep the "OUTING" in SCOUTING!
