About Troop 4

t4-95-colorTroop 4 is one of the oldest chartered Boy Scout troops in the western United States. In June 2008, we celebrated 95 years of continuous operation with our sponsor, Westminster Presbyterian Church. Our Scout room and other facilities are located in the church building at 1757 North Lake Avenue, Pasadena, CA 91004. With 80 to 100 Scouts enrolled throughout the year, we are also one of the largest troops in the San Gabriel Valley Council.

At our website, you will find more information about our history, past Eagle Scouts, past and present Scoutmasters, our calendar of troop events, as well as many other items of interest to our Scouts, their families and friends, and our supporters.

Thousands of Scouts have been a part of Troop 4 over the years. We are proud of all of these Scouts. The most important accomplishment they all had while they were in Troop 4 was they were all Boy Scouts and a part of the Scouting tradition here that dates back to 1913. A number of these Scouts have achieved the rank of Eagle Scout. Congratulations to all. You can check out the list by clicking here Eagle Scouts .
