About Troop 19

Boy Scout Troop 19 was chartered in 1912 (just two years after the Boy Scouts of America was founded) and has been serving scouts in grades 6-12 in the Bryn Mawr, PA area . We are part of the Cradle of Liberty Council and are sponsored by Bryn Mawr Presbyterian Church (BMPC).  Scout Meetings are held on Thursday evenings at 7:00 PM ET at the Bryn Mawr Presbyterian Church in the second floor gymnasium (Temporarily meeting in the overflow lot across Fishers Rd.) BMPC is located at 625 Montgomery Avenue 

 

Our goal is to foster the BSA vision of building our youth into conscientious, responsible, and productive boys by instilling in them lifetime values and developing ethical character traits as expressed in the Scout Oath and Law. We want to create an environment that fosters a sense of community while keeping the fun in scouting. As Baden Powell once said, we are building “Happy, Healthy, and Helpful Citizens.”

 

We are required to ensure that all our leaders are properly trained, so our scouts can be mentored in a safe environment provided by our sponsor organization. In addition, we encourage our leaders to attend regular Scout training events and monthly round tables. We are proud to have past and present leaders who are Eagle Scouts.

 

It is our sincerest hope that if you or if someone you know is considering becoming involved in Scouting, you will contact one of our leaders.

Cub Scouts

Cub Scouting is fun for the whole family. In Scouting, boys and girls start with their best right now selves and grow into their very best future selves. It’s fun, hands-on learning and achievement that puts kids in the middle of the action and prepares them for today – and for life.

Scouts BSA

Scouts BSA is the traditional Scouting experience for youth in the fifth grade through high school. Service, community engagement and leadership development become increasingly important parts of the program as youth lead their own activities and work their way toward earning Scouting’s highest rank, Eagle Scout.

Join Scouting

The BSA’s mission is to prepare young people to make ethical and moral choices over their lifetimes by instilling in them the values of the Scout Oath and Scout Law.
