Magyar Cserkész (Hungarian Scouts) Cleveland Ohio

Magyar Cserkész (Hungarian Scouts) Cleveland Ohio. A girls' troop formed in 1952 and
split into two troops in 1957 in the same
neighborhoods.

The first Hungarian scout troop in the
United States was established in
Cleveland, Ohio in the spring of 1951. By the fall of that year there were two
boys' troops, one on the east side of the
city in the Buckeye Road neighborhood
and one on the west side in the Ohio City
area. All the boys and many of
the older girls also are registered with the
Boy Scouts of America. Today, meetings
are held at the Hungarian Scout Center
and St. Emeric Church near Cleveland’s
downtown West Side Market.
