Who are we?  We are an active boy scout troop sponsored by the Bethlehem United Methodist Church, in West Chester, PA. We are a Quality Unit in the Lenni-Lenape district of the Chester County Council in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania.

Troop 149 was first chartered in 1960 and has since then provided continuous service to the community and to the boys that are and have been part of the troop. 62 young men have achieved the rank of Eagle

We are a "SCOUT" led troop. Under the direction of our  Scoutmaster and the Assistant Scoutmasters the scouts are responsible in executing the troop program plans, and  the primary leadership responsibilities fall to senior scouts with active supervision by the adult committee. This leadership is supported by our troop committee and by the participation of the Scouts' parents, our Eagle Scouts, the church community and our past Scout Masters.

Troop's 149 goal is to provide an educational environment where boys and young adults thrive to build character, personality,  learn to be responsible citizens and to enhance their personal fitness.  Our mission statement reflects that of the Boys Scouts of America ". 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.
