About Us

Founded in 1937, Troop 13 is open to all youth 11-18 years old.  We meeting every Thursday where we play games and learn scout skills. We camp once a month during the school year. On these campouts, we go hiking, swimming, backpacking and canoeing, and sometimes snow skiing, white water rafting, river tubing, and scuba diving.  Every summer, our troop attends two weeks of summer camp and all scouts are welcome to participate in the summer camp activities.

We are a youth-led troop. Adults provide guidance and support. Youth learn to be leaders. Sometimes, it’s messy. Sometimes, they fail. But they learn and grow! We try to live by the Scout Oath and Law. None of us does it perfectly – our goal is to teach and learn to do it better!

We believe in service – we seek to give back to our charter organization, Memorial Presbyterian Church, and our community.
