Welcome to Scouts BSA Troop 614
We are excited to welcome you and your family for what promises to be an amazing adventure! We are a linked (co-ed) troop in Scotts Valley, CA. We are very happy that you are considering our troop as your new scouting home. Here in Troop 614, we value family, friendship, and community. We are 100% youth-led and believe in the ideals of scouting: character, leadership, citizenship training, and personal fitness. In addition, we focus on outdoor skills, cooking, and first aid. We strive to make Troop 614 welcoming to scouts of all ages, skills, and abilities.
We know that choosing your new troop is a personal choice, and we believe you should be both comfortable and excited as you move into your new scouting family. Here are some things to factor in as you consider as making 614 your new troop:
We know that choosing your new troop is a personal choice, and we believe you should be both comfortable and excited as you move into your new scouting family. Here are some things to factor in as you consider as making 614 your new troop:
- We are the first linked troop in the area (a troop for both boys and girls).
- We live by the Patrol Method. Scouts self-organize in smaller groups to practice new skills, teach others, and plan events like campouts, hikes, and advancements.
- We regularly support our community through volunteering. Each year, we teach CPR, host a flag retirement ceremony, lead flag ceremonies, walk in the 4th of July parade, and support many other service projects.
- We value teamwork and youth leadership! We believe in giving scouts the opportunity to develop strong leadership skills throughout their time in Scouts BSA. We work together to ensure that each scout is able to have fun and achieve their goals.
