We run a Christmas Tree lot and a 4th of July Hamburger Stand as our fundraisers. Come check us out. Welcome to Troop 1565
BSA Troop 1565 History
Troop 1565 began in 1959 as Troop 573, chartered by Seabold Methodist Church. In 1969 it was re-chartered as Troop 565 by Bethany Lutheran Church, and in 1998, with the establishment of the ORCA District as part of the Chief Seattle Council, it became
Troop 1565. It was founded to provide a program for young people that builds character, trains them in the responsibilities of participating citizenship, and develops personal fitness. For over 75 years, the Bainbridge Island BSA Troops have helped build the future leaders of this country by combining educational activities and lifelong values with fun (see http://www.biparks.org/parksandfacilities/pkcampyeomalt.html). The Boy Scouts of America believes — and, through over a century of experience, knows — that helping youth is a key to building a more conscientious, responsible, and productive society.
