Welcome to Troop 641! We are a 2018 Journey to Excellence Gold Award Unit!

Welcome to the Troop 641 Web site.  Troop 641 was founded at Walker Chapel United Methodist Church 90 years ago.  The troop was re-formed after a thirty-five year hiatus through the dramatic expansion of Scouting in North Arlington and now meets at St. Peter's Episcopal Church on North Glebe Road in Arlington.  We are a Scout-led troop that values most of all fun activities and the ability to grow, but also combines mentorship from the leaders, moral development of our Scouts, service to our community, and pride in achievement and development.  All appropriately aged boys are welcome to join the Troop, and parents are expected to be active supporters of Troop activities.  If you are a member, please log in.  If not, please use the Contact Us link to find out more information or request access to the Web site to learn about our Troop and consider joining.

Troop 641 has won the Olmsted Honor Oar as Best Troop in Camp at Goshen three times!

Kayaking Merit Badge

Posted on May 2 2026 - 8:44pm

The troop will earn the Kayaking Merit badge on Saturday, May 9th at Silver Lake Regional Park.

Bring water, a bag lunch and snacks. Also, footwear is VERY important! Tell the scouts NO flip flops or crocs, they will come off in the water and we will never find them. They must have shoes that cover the toes and will stay on even during capsize drills. An old pair of sneakers is fine if tightly laced, but they should wear wool or similar socks, otherwise sand and rocks will grind against their skin."
