Welcome to Boy Scout Troop 439!
The goal of Boy Scouts of America is to help boys develop into honorable men. Scouting’s values can be incorporated into a boy’s home, school, and religious community, adding to all three.

Troop 439's program is designed to follow the aims and goals of the Boy Scouts of America. We strive to instill in our Scouts an appreciation of the duties of citizenship, personal fitness (emotional, mental and physical), and the need for good character. We do this by using the time-tested methods of the BSA.

The adult leaders intend to ensure that Troop 439 is a “boy led” Troop. The Senior Patrol Leader and the Troop Leaders Council conduct all program planning, with adults acting only as advisors. Fun is a major part of our program. A boy will not stay in Scouting if he is not having fun. We will have at least one campout every month, sometimes more.

Our program is structured to allow the Scouts to obtain knowledge and learn Scouting, life, and leadership skills in a structured but relaxed atmosphere.

For more information or if you are interested in joining Troop 439, please contact the scoutmaster.
