St. Mary Scout Troop was first chartered in March of 1928 by the PTA. Pastor MGR. P.J. Hines said," You will never get enough men to lead the boys." He was wrong.  In the last 76 years we have had a great following of young men and adults to keep this troop strong and getting better each year. In this year, 2005, we have 43 scout and 22 adult leaders.

Troop 170 has been in many actives such as, Honor Gaurd for President Herbert Hoover when he dedicated Victory Parkway. One year on V.E. Day they raised $6000.00 in pledges in a Radio Bond Show on WKRC Radio. We were honored for having earned the greatest number of advancements in one year in 1975,1998,1999,2000,and 2001.

We hold meetings each week , and try to have a outing once a month.

Camping,canoeing,backpacking,caveing,rafting are some of the things we do.

The troop is open to any boy in the 6th grade or 10 years old till they are 18 years old.
