OUR BELIEFS

As a BSA chartered organization, we aim to foster in our young members growth in moral strength and character, citizenship, and development of physical, mental, and emotional fitness, using the time-tested Scouting methods. Scouts are expected to uphold in their daily lives the Scout Oath and the Scout Law.

Scout Oath
On my honor, I will do my best
To do my duty to God and my country
and to obey the Scout Law;
To help other people at all times;
To keep myself physically strong,
mentally awake, and morally straight.

Scout Law
A Scout is trustworthy, loyal,
helpful, friendly, courteous, kind,
obedient, cheerful, thrifty, brave,
clean, and reverent.

WHAT MAKES TROOP 125 SPECIAL

Troop 125 may have been around a long time, but that doesn't mean we are set in our old ways. The Troop has a strong, year-round outdoor program, which typically culminates every summer with an exciting high-adventure trek and a weeklong stay at Camp Parsons, Chief Seattle's outstanding camp by the waters of Hood Canal.

The Troop also instills in Scouts a strong sense of citizenship through our annual participation in events such as Scouting for Food, Postal Employees' Food Drive, Seattle Marathon, and volunteering for service activities with local organizations such as Woodland Park Presbyterian Church (our charter home), local food banks, Seattle Parks, and others. Ours is a small but diverse, close-knit, and welcoming Troop.
