Welcome to the official website of Boy Scout Troop 642. We belong to the Las Colinas District in the Western Los Angeles Area Council of the Boy Scouts of America. We serve the communities and surrounding areas of Calabasas and Woodland Hills . We welcome new families to find out about our Troop. Scouting is a year-round program for boys around ages 11 - 17. This web site has been created to give our scouts, their families, and visitors to our site an idea of what Scouting is all about and to keep them informed of activities of our troop.
Each year, the American Red Cross and the Department of Veterans Affairs collects holiday cards sent by thousands of Americans, and delivers them to active-duty service members, veterans and military families at installations and hospitals around the world. Through a generous donation, the Western Los Angeles County Council will be producing 10,000 holiday cards, and we're up to the task to assure that each one has a hand-written, personal note from Scouts, their families and even classmates. Troop 642 has a special connection to the military (thank you for your service, Mr. Chartrand), and we will participate in this program in full force! Stacks of cards have been distributed to Scouts (please ask Mr. Rudner if you haven't received some or need more). In a few short months, our thoughtful cards and messages will be in the hands of servicemembers around the world.
MARK YOUR CALENDARS!!!! Join us for dinner on October 19th at our pop-up eatery: Ristorante 6-4-2. This Scout-run Italian restaurant will serve a fully-plated sit-down dinner in a classic Italian environment (both indoor and al fresco dining available). This fundraising event is open to the public from 5:00pm - 8:30pm. No reservations required, however, be sure to purchase your tickets in advance to take advantage of pre-sale discounts. Tickets go on-sale soon, so watch for more information!
