Alameda Troop 7

Est. 2019

Troop 7 welcomes all eligible youth and adult leaders, regardless of gender, race, ethnic background, sexual orientation, or gender identification, who are willing to accept Scouting’s values. We believe that every kid deserves a safe space meant solely for them to grow and succeed.

The Scouts of America was founded as a program for youth to develop character, leadership, citizenship, and personal fitness. These "Aims of Scouting" are as important today as they were in 1910.  Together, Troops 7 and 2 and Crew 2 achieve these aims by: 

Providing balanced camping and outdoor adventures

Supporting youth leadership

Working with experienced and dedicated adult leaders

Respecting all people

Helping others through community service

Being a casual, FUN and family-friendly environment
