Boy Scout Troop 246 is proud to be sponsored by the Knights of Columbus of St. Gabriel the Archangel Catholic Church, 8755 Scarborough Dr, Colorado Springs, CO 80920. We are a member of the Pikes Peak Council and the Boy Scouts of America Jamboree District. The Troop was founded in 1986 and serves the Briargate area of Colorado Springs, Colorado. We currently have a troop of 55 scouts divided into 8 Patrols.

Each year since it's founding, the troop has earned the National Quality Unit Award from the Boy Scouts of America. To date more than 60 young men have achieved the rank of Eagle Scout. Though Troop 246 is proud to be sponsored by the St. Gabriel, we welcome all young men with a desire to challenge themselves in a "fun based" environment.

The troop meets every Tuesday night at 7 PM at St. Gabriel's. The Scouts develop and execute their own program with parent support and participation. The Patrol Leaders Council (PLC) consists of the members of the Senior Patrol (the older and more experienced scouts) and the Patrol Leaders from each patrol. This group meets monthly with the Scoutmaster and Assistant Scoutmasters to plan troop meetings and activities. The troop has a year round program with an outing planned for every month of the year. We participate in the district Camporees as well as the national Jamboree. We have also planned high adventure camps in Canada and Philmont. We also participate in the summer program at Camp Alexander run by the Pikes Peak Council. The summer camp is a great place to work on rank advancement,merit badges, and have fun while doing it.

Visitors are always welcome!
