Troop
135 has been chartered by Sacred Heart Church in southwest
Manchester since 1946 and welcomes boys of any faith or denomination.
We meet on Monday nights from 6:30 to 8:30 at either Sacred
Heart Church (1 mile north of Hannaford’s) or, at Camp
Carpenter.
We are a very active troop, offering many events throughout
the year including; camping, whitewater canoeing, backpacking,
bicycle trips and more. During summers, we offer one week
at Hidden Valley Scout Reservation and, an annual “High-Adventure”
trip. Traditionally, we participate in a Philmont Trek (the
ultimate scouting adventure) once every three years.
The Senior Patrol, with the input of the Patrol Leaders plans
the troop program and runs the weekly meetings. Behind them,
with great support, is a large Troop Committee with many years
experience.
Scouts and adult leaders alike wear the full “class-A”
uniform with pride. Our goal as a unit is the same as the
Boy Scouts of America's; to instill in our youth, the values
of leadership and fellowship to their community, nation and
friends around the world.
Troop 135 has served many Bedford boys throughout its history,
many of whom have earned the Eagle rank. For more information
or, to arrange a visit, please contact e-mail: Scoutmaster Darin Gagne or by phone at 622-1684.
