A Brief History
Boy Scouts in Newtown Square dates back to the days of "Troop 1, RFD, Larchmont, PA" which reflected our community’s rural standing in 1922.
Since then the chartering organization of Troop 1 has changed from the Marple Newtown School District, to the Newtown Township Business Association, to the Newtown Square Baptist Church. Finally in 1947 St. Anastasia Parish became the Troop’s chartering organization. In the late 1960s, The Boy Scouts of America required Larchmont Troop 1 to change its unit number to Troop 315.
Even though we are charted at a Roman Catholic Church, we welcome boys of all and any religious affiliation.
With over 100 years of history and a strong appetite for the outdoors and adventure, our Troop is proud to serve boys in the Marple/Newtown and surrounding areas and help them develop into the leaders of tomorrow.
