Boy Scouts of America

Mt. Zion United Methodist Church is the sponsoring organization for Cub Scout Pack 43, BSA Scout Troop 475, and Venture Crew. The Scouts have always been a great asset to our church and are proud to see they have grown to over 200 youth participating in the program. They meet weekly at the church. Please refer to the calendar of events to learn more about specific dates and times.

All three groups are very active and that includes camping, social service projects while working on rank advancement and merit badges. All of them have helped the church with many events over the years. They have volunteered to help the U.S. Postal Food Drive for our Mt. Zion Food Pantry, Mt. Zion Community Benefit, Trunk or Treat and various other activities. Every February the Scouts plan the entire service and conduct a wonderful service on Scout Sunday. They represent themselves along with their parents and leaders in the Scout program.
