BSA Boy Scouts in Boy Scouts Troop 139 and their families have fun and adventures in a boys youth program that builds character and self-esteem while BSA Boy Scouts Troop Scouts have a great time with their friends:
“Outings” are a big part of Scouting. BSA Boy Scouts get out and about with many kinds of outdoor fun, such as: field trips, hikes, climbing, white water rafting, nature and conservation activities.
BSA Boy Scouts learn to live in the outdoors. Camping takes BSA Boy Scouts on exciting adventures into the natural world.
BSA Boy Scouts Troop 139 offers boys the opportunity to serve in various leadership positions where leadership training is offered. Additionally, there is leadership training available through our local BSA council (GLAAC) as well as national youth leadership training programs.
BSA Boy Scouts do valuable community service projects together. It is one way that BSA Boy Scouts fulfill the Scouts Oath “to help other people at all times.”
BSA Boy Scouts learn how to do First Aid, swimming, lifesaving. cooking, properly caring for animals, and much more.
There are 7 ranks for BSA Boy Scouts to achieve by completing exciting and meaningful activities through which a BSA Boy Scouts grows in self-reliance and the ability to help others by learning new information and acquiring new skills.
BSA Boy Scouts can earn Merit Badges that demonstrate proficiency in a particular area of study or skill at troop meetings, camps, or with registered adult Merit Badge Counselors in the community. There are more than 135 merit badge subjects to choose from, including:
Another particularly strong benefit of BSA Scouting for Boys is that more than half of troop meetings include activities involving boys of different ethnic backgrounds; and since most BSA Boy Scouts are in uniform at meetings, they gain a sense of being part of a team, without the socioeconomic barriers that might otherwise be expressed through attire.
On my honor
I will do my best
to do my duty to God
and my country
and to obey the Scout Law;
to help other people at all times;
to keep myself physically strong,
mentally awake, and morally straight.
Be prepared
Do a good turn daily
The Scout Law has 12 points. Each is a goal for every BSA Boy Scout who tries to live up to the Scout Law every day. It is not always easy to do, but a BSA Boy Scout always tries his best.
