History
For more than 50 years, St. Aloysius Church sponsored a Boy
Scout Troop, #45. Many New Canaan boys
and families grew up with Scouting at St. Aloysius and earned their Eagle
here. Prominent families from
surrounding towns were also part of the Troop and its history.
In the late 1980’s, due to changing community interests,
Troop 45 stood down and merged into the other local Troops. Over the past several years, however, New
Canaan as a town has seen a resurgence in Scouting.
In the Fall of 2019, St. Aloysius started a new Cub Scout
Pack. In the Spring of 2020, St.
Aloysius re-started Troop 45. Both
Scouting units are now fully up and running.
Bob Mantilia serves as our Chartered Organization Representative (COR)
and J.D. Piro serves as our Unit Commissioner.
