Scout Pack 1139
Vienna, Virginia
Our Mission
The mission of the Boy Scouts of America 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 Law.
Scout Law
A Scout is trustworthy, loyal, helpful, friendly, courteous, kind, obedient, cheerful, thrifty, brave, clean, and reverent.
Scout Oath
“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.”
About our Pack
Welcome to Pack 1139!
We are a medium-size Pack (40-50) of both boys and girls in Grades Kindergarten through 5th Grade serving Vienna, Virginia. Our parent volunteers are committed to developing the foundations for leadership, citizenship, and personnel fitness through fun, engaging, and educational activities. Our program is designed to for Scouts and their families to get in on the fun, explore the outdoors, work together on projects, make friends, and serve our community.
Each month, our pack holds a fun and engaging meeting and goes on an outing such as fishing, hiking, or visiting a museum. We also camp twice a year and conduct service projects. Our Scouts also meet in dens of their grades once or twice per month to work on requirements. We try to schedule activities our busy family schedules in mind.
Sara Snyder, Pack Committee Chair
Martin Etner, Cubmaster
