Our group is partnered with 2 North American wide organizations. Christian Service Brigade as well as the Christian Cadets. Brigade was founded in the 1930's and Cadets in the 1950's.
Our Tree Climbers, Stockade and Battalion are outreach ministries from the Wesleyan Church of Orchard Park. In Brigade Cadets we believe and teach basic Christian beliefs. Boys attending Brigade do not have to be attenders of this church or any other. 85% or more of the boys who attend our group come from outside of our church with nearly half attending local Catholic Churches, Lutheran, Presbyterian and others in Orchard Park, Hamburg and East Aurora. The Wesleyan Church of Orchard Park was founded over 110 years ago. Click to learn more about the Wesleyan Church of Orchard Park .
