Youth Leadership
Boy-led isn't a slogan — it's an org chart. Scouts run Troop 839, and the Senior Patrol Leader runs the show.

⭐ Current Senior Patrol Leader

Troop Guides & New Scouts
New Scouts advance toward First Class with the help of Troop Guides — experienced Scouts assigned as mentors to each new patrol. Leadership in Troop 839 starts with helping the Scout behind you on the trail.
