What do boys get out of Boy Scouting?
Fun, Outdoor Adventure
Trained Leadership
Citizenship
Personal Growth
Text Box: Each year we offer a summer merit badge camp, a summer high adventure camp, and a winter camp.   

Our monthly camping includes locations chosen by the Scout Leadership and each campout has a theme with scouting skills and rank advancement the focus.  Each campout is attended by many Assistant Scoutmasters.  All dads (and moms!) of new scouts are welcome to camp with the troop.  The boys pitch their own tent and cook their own food.  Scouts help one another with cooking, camp set up and
activities.  Boy Scouting is designed to take place outdoors.
Text Box: Boy Scout Troop 1631 was formed in 1982 by Clyde Jacks, former City of Sugar Land Councilman.
