Welcome to the website of Troop 1
Current Activities
Troop 1 attempts to plan an event at least once a week (other than the weekly Troop meeting every Wednesday night). We plan a major trip about once a month, whether it is backpacking, car camping or just a quick overnight mountain biking trip. In addition, the Troop arranges and takes part in assorted community service activities. For a quick reference to the latest information and location of where we will be going, please refer to our activities link located below.

Troop 1 typically has 35 to 40 Scout members. Most of the Scouts who remain active members of the Troop achieve the rank of Eagle Scout. Some of these Scouts remain as Adult Leaders after their 18th birthday while others go on to college but remain active in Scouting.
Troop 1 meets at the First United Methodist Church each Wednesday evening at 7:30 PM during the regular school year. Scouts visiting the Portland area are welcome to join us for our meetings.
