Welcome to Troop 708!
We are part of the Buena Creek District of San Diego-Imperial Council. We are chartered by The Salvation Army, Oceanside, and include young men from Oceanside, Vista and Carlsbad. We have a supportive group of registered and trained adult leaders and many enthusiastic and involved Scouts.
Our troop has an active program that combines advancement, service and outdoor activities. The troop is run by the Scouts, who choose and plan their activities and outings, run troop meetings, cook, and train younger Scouts in camping and leadership skills. They learn by doing, following the traditional Scouting patrol method established over 100 years ago, by Lord Baden-Powell. Recent activities include time in the Sierras, Camp Emerson, Palomar Mountain, Joshua Tree and even some Kern River backpacking.
We meet at the Salvation Army located on Lake Blvd in Oceanside, CA every Monday evening unless otherwise indicated on our Troop calendar. Meeting time is 6:45PM and goes until 8PM, unless indicated on the troop calendar. We are always looking for new Scouts to join in our adventures!
