Brooklyn Scouts

This troop offers 2 youth sections:
Otter Raft (Grades K-3)
Timberwolf Pack (Grades 3-5)

Sections meet two Wednesdays every month near south end of Prospect Park. Please note that most hikes, fundraisers and camping trips are during weekends and holiday breaks.

Activities by section are separate, with a handful of events being the entire Troop (all sections) held together. Once a child reaches Timberwolf, parents are no longer required to attend campouts. However car pool drivers and chaperones for day activities are heavily depended upon, and each parent is required to maintain a volunteer position within the Troop.

For information about section availability, please contact the Membership Coordinator.

To learn more about parent and family responsibilities as a member of 1213th Lookout Hill Troop, see the Parents page.

Our Windsor Terrace based group was founded in 2017. Named after the 177-foot-high hill on the Southern end of Prospect Park. At the bottom you'll find a monument erected to the memory of the Maryland 400, a company of American troops who held the hill while Washington's army retreated during the Battle of Brooklyn in 1776.

The necker majority colors are dark green represents the nature of the surrounding Prospect Park with a thin band of navy and light blue representing the view of all the water ways that can be seen from the top of the hill on a clear day.
