Scouts BSA Troop 35

Boy Troop & Girl Troop

Invite You to Join the Adventure!

in Laguna Beach, California!

Boys and Girls can join Scouts BSA at age 11 or in the spring of their 5th grade year. They continue in Scouting up until age 18, when they can become adult volunteers. Your son or daughter will join one of our age and grade-based patrol groups in our Boy Troop 35, (est. 1945) or in the newly chartered Girl Troop 35  (est. 2019). If your scout is older than 11, ask us about which "patrol" they should join.

Register Today!

SCOUTS: If your son or daughter is new to Scouting, you'll need to fill out a Youth Application (click this link to download one) or you can go to the Scout Forms page.    OR fill out an on line application:  https://beascout.scouting.org/list/?zip=92651&program%5B0%5D=pack&program%5B1%5D=scoutsBSA&cubFilter=all&scoutsBSAFilter=all&miles=10#    Select either the Boy Troop or the Girl Troop and follow the instructions in the one line application program.

ADULTS: Men and women are welcome to volunteer.  If you'll be serving as a volunteer, you'll need to complete Youth Protection Training before you submit the adult application.  The training is done on line and should take about 2 hours. It is the mission of the Boy Scouts of America to maintain a culture of Youth Protection awareness and safety at the national, regional, area, council, district, and unit levels.   Please go to the menu on this website and click on Adult Membership and Youth Protection Training for information about how to become an adult volunteer.  Click here for an Adult Application  or you can go to the Scout Forms page.   Once an adult is registered, the adult may take additional training courses to be designated as a trained leader or as an assistant scoutmaster or scoutmaster.  

ANNUAL DUES:  The dues amount for 2020 for youth is $250 (prorated depending on month joined) and the adults dues amount is $50.    The youth dues covers the national and local registration and insurance fees noted on the Scouts BSA application as well as the program costs for our troop.  The adult dues is for national fees, insurance and a background check.    National Scouts BSA has a one time joining fee for youth of $25.   Each Troop has a new youth member package of troop items that costs $115 to cover the cost of a troop duffle bag, T-shirt, neckerchief and slide and Scouts BSA handbook.    The Troop will collect the dues. New members and new adult volunteers have an option to pay these amounts via Pay Pal through our website, check or cash.   We do have scholarships available through our troop or council if a family needs financial assistance.   We do not want financial concerns to prevent a youth member from joining Scouts BSA.  

Join Today! Join us for an outstanding 2020-21 program.   We follow all recommendations for Covid restrictions for small group meetings.  New members can join at anytime.

Today Pack 35 met at Alta Laguna Park and picked up trash.     The most unusual item found was a smashed cell phone.   The most common items found were candy wrappers.     Troop 35 B and G members may still do service projects this weekend to earn the Day of Service Patch.   Please email me a photo of the service project and tell me where you performed the service.   Thank you for helping our community.   Pam Jensen Troop 35 Committee Chair

A message from the Troop Committee Chair

Posted on Oct 7 2023 - 11:44pm

Welcome to another Scout Year for Troops 35 B and G.  I hope to see everyone at the Court of Honor on Sunday, Oct 8.  Set up begins at 3pm and the COH starts at 3:30pm.   We will honor the youth for the ranks, merit badges and awards earned over the summer.  We bid farewell in June to our graduating seniors in both Troops.   We welcomed our Troop 35 B newest members in the spring and at summer camp,   They have named their patrol the Ace Patrol.  I am putting out a request to the parents of the Ace patrol members to consider joining the adult leaders at our next Troop committee meeting on Tuesday, Oct 24 at 7pm via a Zoom link.  The link will be posted on the calendar.   We would like at least one parent of the Ace patrol to become a registered adult committee member and to attend the meetings.  If you are interested in attending, please let me know at the Court of Honor.    Parents of other patrols are also welcome to become involved so let me know.   We also need at least one or two more adult female leaders to go on camping events with our girl troop.    Contact Mark or Cheryl Withycombe if you would like to register as an adult leader for the girl troop.
