Join Troop 53 and Become Part of a Proud Legacy!
Since 1931, Troop 53 of Fair Lawn, NJ has been more than just a place to learn knots and earn badges — it’s been a home. A family. A light for young people who may not have felt like they belonged anywhere else.
Here, we welcome every scout with kindness and open arms. In our troop, hate has no home. Every child is seen, heard, and valued — not for what they’ve done, but for who they are and who they’re becoming.
In a world where school, sports, and constant expectations can weigh heavily on our kids, Troop 53 offers something truly different — a break. A breath. A chance to step away from pressure and into an adventure they’ll never forget.
Through camping under the stars, hiking rugged trails, and laughing around a campfire, scouts find something rare — a moment that feels timeless. It’s just you, the fire, your friends, and the stars. No noise, no pressure — just peace. Just presence. In those moments, it’s as if the world slows down, and all that’s left is the purity of the adventure and the quiet joy of being exactly where you are. It’s not just an escape — it’s a kind of divinity.
In the process, scouts don’t just build fires — they build confidence. They don’t just learn survival skills — they discover resilience. They don’t just make friends — they find a second family.
Join us — and give your child the gift of adventure, freedom, and belonging. You’ll be glad you did.
Located in Fair Lawn, NJ — always open to new hearts and helping hands.
