Troop 96 is a
Boy Scout unit in the Old Portage District of the Great Trail Council. Since its
organization in 1944, several hundred boys, including over 50 Eagles, have been
members of Troop 96. The Troop now has members who are sons of former Troop 96
Scouts. Currently there are approximately 23 active Scouts and 8 active
Scouters. The Troop is sponsored by Saint Sebastian Catholic Church and the
church provides facilities for the regular meetings and storage space for the
Troop equipment. The program of the Troop is substantially Catholic based but is
open to all boys regardless of chosen faith from the ages of 11 to 18 who are
willing to live by the Scout Oath and Law. We have meetings every week on
Thursday evenings at 7:30 pm in Byrider Hall meeting room
