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.

2022 Christmas Tree Sale

Posted on Nov 9 2022 - 5:44pm

For decades, the Pacific Skyline Council has been able to raise money for our local Council Camps and activities through the sale of Christmas trees! Sadly, for the last few years the Council has not been able provide such a service to our families. For those of you that may not know, the fires that damaged Cutter Scout Reservation in 2020 also damaged all our gear and supplies needed to operate a Christmas tree lot.   

The Pacific Skyline Council is once again offering beautiful Christmas Trees to the community to raise money for our local Council Camps and activities! We will be partnering with Wood Mountain Christmas trees to bring a little Scouting spirit back into your holidays!

Scouting Dues - Now Due

Posted on Oct 30 2022 - 11:29am

It's that time of the year, to collect our annual dues for the membership of our troop. We have been fortunate that we have been able to hold our fees low and fixed for several years. This year we are going to have to adjust them a little to keep up with the rising costs of operating the troop. Remember that the majority of the fees go to various BSA council costs and only about 1/3 stays the our troop. Yet that small amount makes it possible for the scouts to experience so many things.

Our fees this year will be $375 per scout. You can pay by CC through our online Square store at https://t28burlingame.square.site, or by PayPal to the treasurers address t28treasurer@gmail.com, or you can send a check made out to BSA Troop 28 to 1630 Balboa Way, Burlingame Ca 94010.

Please pay by November 1, 2022
