History of 651st Greenwood
Our troop was founded in 2022 when two smaller troops, 89th Flatbush and 1213th Windsor Terrace combined. Our troop includes the members, traditions, and enthusiasm of both original troops in one! Fun fact: 651 was selected as the new troop number because it is the average of numbers 1213 and 89!
