St. Helena's sponsors Boy Scout Troop 65, which was founded in 1951.  The scouts meet every Wednesday from 6:30 - 8:00 p.m. in the school cafeteria.

We also sponsor Cub Scout Pack 65, which meets every Thursday.

EAGLE SCOUT BOOK DRIVE

An Eagle Scout candidate, Levar Hinkson (center), from St. Helena Boy Scout Troop 65 conducted a BOOK DRIVE.  The children’s books were distributed by the scouts to children at the KWANZAA celebration which took place in the gym on Friday, December 30.  The adult books were brought by the scouts to two facilities run by Catholic Charities here in the Bronx which offer residential, assisted living, and senior day care programs. 



St. Helena Boy Scout Troop 65 attended the monthly 43rd Precinct Community Council Meeting as one of the requirements in earning the Citizenship in the Community Merit Badge.
