Troop Meetings

Troop meetings are usually held every other Tuesday, from 7:13 to 8:30 p.m., at St. Peter’s Episcopal Church between 14th & 15th Streets in Del Mar. Patrol leader meetings usually occur before the troop meeting from 6:40-7:13 pm. Please arrive on time with the Uniform tucked in, cell phones will be collected at the beginning of the meeting.

Scout-Led Troop

Troop 713 is a scout-led troop. The Senior Patrol Leader and their Patrol Leaders Council set the events calendar for the year, plan the troop meetings, and run all of the events. Adults are present for health and safety concerns, to assist the scouts in developing their leadership skills, and to perform duties that require an adult in order to accomplish the task for legal or contractual reasons. The scouts occasionally stumble, but scouting is a safe environment to learn from our mistakes.

Uniforms

Scouts are expected to wear class A uniforms to Troop meetings, including a scout shirt, neckerchief and slide, official pants, and socks. Class A Uniforms are required at Troop Meetings, Council Events, and while traveling to and from camping trips. Class A uniforms can be purchased at the BSA Scout Shop on Upas St. It is recommended that new scouts buy their shirts with room to grow since patches will need to be re-sewn with each size change. Class B uniforms (the red Troop t-shirts) are used on campouts and other outings and can be purchased from the Quartermaster at troop meetings.
