About Troop 10Troop 10 is the newest of the three scout troops in Lexington. Our troop was founded in 2011 when the two existing troops in town started to grow very large. We are a smaller troop, and concentrate on high adventure trips and on both traditional and old-time scouting skills. We meet once a week and go on one camping trip a month. We participate in may other civic, service and scouting activities during the year as well. Come visit us and explore all that scouting has to offer.
