BOY SCOUTS TROOP 43

Moderator: Jose Andion '00

Boy Scouts Troop 43 was chartered by Belen Jesuit School in 1966 under the direction of Fr. Espada, our first Scoutmaster. Fr. Espada's insight recognized the opportunities Scouting provided young men with challenging adventures.

The Troop is run by the Scouts, under the direction of the Scoutmaster and supported by the parent's committee. Parental involvement is encouraged since it provides opportunities for adults to share their different areas of expertise with the boys outside of a classroom setting and helps the boys develop a diverse understanding of different careers and leadership styles. Moreover, the Troop and Crew are open to friends and family of Belen students and teachers.
