TROOP 1613
Originally founded in October, 2009, TROOP 1613 is based in Yorba Linda, California. TROOP 1613 meets the first three Monday evenings of every month from 7:00 - 8:30 pm in the Fellowship Hall at Richfield Community Church located at 5320 Richfield Road in Yorba Linda. (We hold a planning meeting on the fourth Monday of each month. This is called the Patrol Leadership Council (PLC).)
TROOP 1613 is a scout-led organization which includes a diverse program of weekly meetings, outdoor adventures, advancement, community service projects and an annual family excursion. Our goals are to develop Godly men who are independent, self-sufficient and respected leaders in their communities. If you're seeking a place to learn life skills and join in outdoor-based adventures . . . you've come to the right place.
Our mission statement directly correlates to our Troop number 1613:
"Be on your guard; stand firm in the faith; be men of courage; be strong."
1 Corinthians 16:13
In addition to maintaining a 12-month calendar, Troop 1613 conducts weekly meetings, regular troop committee meetings, parent meetings, and a Court of Honor held quarterly.
