Boy Scout Troop 1365


Troop Goal
The goal of Troop 1365 is to provide a Safe and Healthy Environment where our Scouts will have the opportunity to participate in the ideals and principles of the Scouting program.

The Boy Scouts of America (BSA) is an educational resource program. It annually charters community or religious organizations or groups to use Scouting as a part of their service to their members as well as the community at large. The BSA local council provides the support services necessary to help the Chartered Organization succeed in their use of the program.


Purpose of the Boy Scouts of America
The purpose of the Boy Scouts of America is to promote through cooperation with other agencies, the ability for youth to do things for themselves.  The Boy Scout Organization focuses on teaching Youth Patriotism, Courage, Self-reliance and Kindred Virtues. In achieving this purpose, emphasis is placed upon the Boy Scouts of America’s educational programs and oaths, promises and codes for Character Development, Citizenship Training, Mental and Physical Fitness.


Excerpt from Declaration of Religious Principle
The Boy Scouts of America maintains that NO Member can grow into the best kind of citizen without recognizing an obligation to God and, therefore, recognizes the religious element in the training of the members, but is Nonsectarian in its attitude toward that religious training. The Boy Scouts of America policy in the home and the organization or group with which the member is connected shall give definite attention to religious life.

  

Only persons willing to subscribe to Declaration of Religious Principles and the Bylaws of the Boy Scouts of America shall be entitled to certificates of leadership.
