BSA Troop 3 serves Easton, Pa., and the surrounding communities. Troop meetings are held Wednesdays at 7:30 p.m. and special events, such as camping trips, are scheduled throughout the year.

Troop 3 is part of the Northampton District of Minsi Trails Council. We are chartered by College Hill Presbyterian Church.

Our Purpose

Through our active youth, parents, and leaders, we strive for a fun, safe environment that teaches our young men the morals and values they need to become outstanding citizens in our community and nation.

Leading the way

We design our curriculum to develop the leadership skills needed to achieve high social standards. Being a leader is an integral part of succeeding. Our goal is to ensure our Scouts will be leading the way and not just following.

Minsi Trail Council

Troop 3 is part of Minsi Trail Council of the Scouts BSA that serves Scouts of eastern Pennsylvania’s Lehigh Valley and Pocono regions as well as parts of western New Jersey. The council serves six counties: Lehigh, Northampton, Monroe, Carbon, Luzerne, and Warren.

The council was formed in 1969, after the merger of the Bethlehem Area, Delaware Valley Aera, and Lehigh councils. The council consists of five districts and maintains one camping property: Camp Minsi in Pocono Summit.
