Welcome to Scout Troop 28

Proudly Scouting Since 1950

For over sixty years, Troop 28 has been building young men of excellent character through Scouting. We stress leadership, personal responsibility, fun, friendship and outdoor adventures. 

Youth who have earned the Arrow of Light rank and are at least 10 years old, or have completed the fifth grade and are at least 10, or who are 11, but not yet 18 years old are welcome to join Troop 28.

For grades K - 5, contact Burlingame or Hillsborough CUB SCOUT Packs. 1) https://www.troopwebhostcs.org/Pack128Burlingame/Index.htm  2) https://www.facebook.com/hillsboroughcubs Pack 58

We are grateful to be sponsored by Saint Paul’s Episcopal Church, 415 El Camino Real, Burlingame. Our troop meetings are generally held the first and third Monday of each month, from 7 - 8:15 pm.  Click on Contact Us if you're interested in learning more about Troop 28 or would like to attend one of our meetings.

Our troop is Scout-led, and our adult staff is highly trained. Our emphasis is on quality, not quantity, and we achieve good results by having the parents of our Scouts reinforce the values of the Scout Oath and Scout Law at home.  Our parent group has high participation in providing the scaffolding for the scouts to build the program on.

Our troop is engaged in camping, hiking, backpacking, river rafting, skiing and service projects. We practice the patrol method, and emphasize creating experiences that are both meaningful and memorable.  Our troop culture practices what we call the straight A’s: attendance, appearance, activity, advancement, accountability, and awards.

New Year, New Medical Forms

Posted on Oct 1 2021 - 8:23am

As we start the new scout year, and begin to have in-person outings and camping trips, it's time to ensure we have up to date medical forms for all participants.  

 
Part A is an informed consent, release agreement and authorization that needs to be signed by every participant (or a parent and/or legal guardian for all youth under 18).
Parts B1 and B2 are general information and a health history. It requires immunization records and a copy of the front and back of your medical insurance card.
 
Print and sign 2 copies of Forms A, B1, and B2. Please include copies of the front/back of the insurance card and immunization record. 

You can bring them to the next troop meeting, or snail mail/deliver them to Secretary Troop 28, 307 Channing Road, Burlingame CA 94010. Electronic copies will not be accepted and will be returned.
 
Note: if your scout attended summer camp 2021, we do not need new forms (until summer 2022).
