We are a Scout-led troop serving in the Prince William District of Northern Virginia, part of the National Capital Area Council (NCAC), one of the largest Councils in the United States. Recognizing what started as a small group of Scouts and adult leaders has grown into one of the largest and most active Troops in our area with well over 100 members, youth plus adult, over the past few years.

Troop 1396 maintains a very active Scout and trained Scouter (adult member) membership, as well as a superb record of Eagle Scouts. Over 90% of our adult members are fully trained to BSA requirements. We have had at least one Scout earn Eagle Scout every year (except the first year) since our initial charter in 1989. We are very proud of all our Eagle Scouts! Check out our list in The Eagle's Nest.
