Always Ready Troop

Consistent with the Regiment’s core values, the Association strives to be “always ready” to support its mission to current troopers and their families, our members and the unit’s heritage.

The Always Ready Troop fund is designed to cover the Association’s annual operating costs, currently budgeted at $25,000.

No restrictions are placed on this fund and all donations to the Association not otherwise designated will be placed in The Always Ready Troop fund.

The 1836 Society

The 1836 Society embodies our motto, “Remember Your Regiment.” This endowment is designed to preserve the Regiment’s history. Our intent is to establish a fund of at least $183,600 from which we can draw each year for various historical projects. The first 100 to donate to the society will be designated as charter members. Membership in the Society requires a one-time donation of $1836. It may also be paid in two or four installments. Donations to The 1836 Society are restricted to preserving our heritage.

Dragoon Troop

The Association has long offered an annual scholarship to deserving members of the Second Cavalry family.

The Dragoon Scholarship Troop is designed to raise money to support the Association’s scholarship efforts. The goal is to establish an endowment that perpetuates this commitment by the Association. Donations to this Troop are restricted to scholarship awards.
