Troop 93 is a high adventure troop in Fullerton, where outdoor challenges help Scouts develop confidence, teamwork, and leadership. We believe in the core values of Scouting and make vigorous use of the BSA Patrol Method, which emphasizes boy leadership and personal responsibility.
Our Troop program is planned and executed by the Scouts themselves, based on their interests and the needs of the Troop. The advancement program is supported by Troop activities, but the pace of an individual Scout’s advancement is dependent, to a great degree, on his own initiative.
There is room for every Scout, whatever their interests or experience. Camping, community service, STEM activities, merit badges, and leadership offer many ways to participate and contribute. Our outdoor program ranges from first-year experiences to high adventure for older, more experienced Scouts. Each Scout can discover what excites them and grow at their own pace.

Leadership skills are developed through the use of the Patrol Method and the Patrol Leaders Council (monthly planning meeting incorporating the patrol leaders with adult guidance).
Self-discipline and self-sufficiency of the young men is developed through monthly camping opportunities. Individual accomplishment is met through advancement within the Boy Scout program.
Troop 93 is guided using the “two deep” leadership method by registered and trained adult leaders at all times during each meeting and function. All adult leaders are required to have current Youth Protection certification and have completed all leader specific training as required for their position in the Troop.
New leaders and committee members are always welcome. Parental involvement is a very important ingredient to maintaining our strong Troop.
The mission of Scouting is to prepare young people to make ethical and moral choices over their lifetimes by instilling in them the values of the Scout Oath and Law.
Developing self-reliance, discipline, and the inner strength to act according to moral and ethical principles.
Training for active participation in society through local community service and national awareness.
Promoting physical, mental, and emotional health through outdoor activities and personal challenge.
The patrol method connects our values to everyday decisions. Scouts work in smaller groups called patrols, with youth leaders helping their teams prepare, participate, and contribute to troop life.
Working with a patrol gives scouts a chance to share responsibilities and learn from one another. They practice listening, explaining an idea, and doing their part in a group.
Outdoor skills and teamwork develop together: being prepared matters both to the individual scout and to the rest of the patrol.
Troop 93's program is planned and carried out by scouts, based on their interests and the needs of the troop. Patrol leaders take part in a monthly Patrol Leaders Council with adult guidance.
That gives scouts a setting to practice planning, representing their patrols, and following through on decisions.
Adult leaders guide the program and help scouts build the skills to take responsibility. Families also contribute through troop leadership and committee involvement.
Parents interested in helping can talk with troop leaders about available roles and the preparation needed for them.
Troop activities support advancement, but each scout's progress depends on their own initiative. The goal is to develop skills and responsibility along the way. Our advancement guide explains the path, and the Eagle Scout honor roll recognizes scouts who have reached its highest rank.
