Welcome to Boy Scout Troop 485
Troop 485 was established in 2013 and chartered by Veterans of Foreign Wars, Post 2485, located in Angeles City, Philippines. Boy Scout Troop 485 is part of the East Asia District in the Far East Council of the Boy Scouts of America.

On my honor I will do my best
To do my duty to God and my country
and to obey the Scout Law;

Be conservation minded.

Meetings are held on a regular basis, all year long, on Saturday mornings from 10AM to 12noon in the meeting hall of VFW, 381 Santol Road (Corner Santol Rd. & Pinatubo St.) Clarkview Subdivision, Angeles City, Philippines.
Regular attendance is expected for all boys who join our troop. In the event school is cancelled due to inclement weather, scout meetings are also cancelled.
