About us.
AGBU Scouting places a strong emphasis on leadership, community service, and respect for others. Those are the binding principles that inspired our Troop's founding in 1991.
In the years that have followed, we've had over a thousand young Armenians, learn outdoor skills, engage in educational talks, and strengthen their community in solidarity with their peers.
Throughout the year, AGBU scouts look forward to earning awards, learning new skills, engaging in community service, camping locally, and in Armenia- at the AGBU Antranik Scout Camp.
