Founded in 1913, Troop 4 is one of the oldest Scout troops in the western U.S. and one of the largest in the Greater Los Angeles Area Council. Because of our history and large volunteer staff, we offer a variety of exciting events, projects, and adventures for the complete Scouting experience. Troop 4 Scouts have fun and that’s the key to our success in building character, leadership, and a commitment to community service.

Organ Donor Awareness Month
Troop 4 is doing Fitness in April and promoting Organ Donor awareness. In conjunction with Donate Life America. https://www.donatelife.net/
Scouts are trying to get friends or family to register to become organ donors. More than 100,000 people are waiting for a lifesaving transplant.

We started with a presentation by ASM John Heinsen and on Monday had a guest speaker Phil Shin – Marathon runner, cancer survivor and organ recipient. Everyone learned a lot thanks to the arrangements by Troop Committee Chairperson Greg Braun. Here is a picture from our zoom meeting. Links below for more of Phil’s amazing story.
