Welcome to the home of Boy Scout Troop 586 on the Web.

This site was built to serve not only our Troop but any and all Scouts and Scout volunteers who happen by.

The site has grown over the years and is fast approaching 1000 seperate web pages. Within these pages reside the requirements for all 120 Merit Badges, all 7 ranks (including "Scout") as well as numerous other requirements such as "Totin' Chip", "BSA Lifeguard" and many more.

I am constantly striving to improve the site as well as keep it up to date and functional. To that end what you see here is a major re-write of the entire site as of mid July 2003. The layout I had in place before didn't seem to work for some people I talked to so I've eliminated the old javascript driven menu and replaced it with what you see to your left. This menu will change if you navigate off to the Merit Badge or Rank requirement sections so if you want to return here, simply click on the numbers in the upper left corner of this (or any) page.

Enjoy your stay and don't forget to tell your friends.
