Troop 1776 is located in Titusville, New Jersey adjacent to Washington Crossing National Park on the Delaware River. This being the historic location where General George Washington crossed with his troops in preparation for the ensuing Battle of Trenton, Troop 1776 assumes this historic legacy in both troop number and logo.
