Welcome to Boy Scout Troop 39

Matthews, NC

 

It was December 11, 1941, just four days after the Japanese bombed Pearl Harbor, when a small group of boys met for the first time under the leadership of the Rev. Hubert Mumford of the First Presbyterian Church of Matthews. That was the beginning of Boy Scout Troop 39 of Matthews, NC.

 

Now almost 70 years later, Troop 39 continues to provide an active program promoting outdoor skills, adventure, citizenship, leadership, and moral character-building in young men ages 11-17. Meetings are held on Monday nights from 7:00 p.m. to 8:30 p.m. in the Eagle's Nest (house next to MUMC).

 

Troop 39 is led by Scoutmaster Joe Culpepper, Committee Chair Don Belcher and Charter Organization Representative Dan Latta. We are in the Etowah District of the Mecklenburg County Council, and Order of the Arrow Catawba Lodge #459. Joe can also be reached by phone at 704.841.8663.

 

Happy Birthday Boy Scouts of America!
