Troop 710 is chartered to American Legion Post #215 in Goochland, Virginia.  In addition to weekly troop meetings, activities include camping or backpacking trips, summer camps, service projects, and high-adventure trips for older Scouts. Troop 710 is part of the James River District in the Heart of Virginia Council.  Recent activities include backpacking trips in Maine, New Hampshire, and New Mexico, a camping trip to attend the Oceana Naval Air Show, summer camp in NC, a backpacking trip to Grayson Highlands, canoe trips , and bicycle "bike packing" trips.

Our troop meets each Monday evening from 7:10PM until 8:30PM in the Handicraft Lodge at Camp T. Brady Saunders in Goochland, VA.  Visitors are welcome at any of our Troop meetings - please contact one of our scoutmasters for additional information.  We also invite potential new scouts or rising Cub Scouts to join us on any of our monthly camping trips to get a feel for our troop. 

Since it's founding, Troop 710 has produced over 100 Eagle Scouts.  Scouting provides numerous leadership and service opportunities for young men and women in their churches, in their communities and in their schools as well as developing outdoors skills.

Troop 710 is split up into two troops; one for young men and one for young women. For more information, contact James Dick (boy's troop Scoutmaster) at  jamesandlorrie@gmail.com or Elizabeth Ortuno (girl's troop Scoutmaster) at scoutsbsa.goochland@gmail.com.
