A great supporter of Boy Scouts in NYC just passed away. John Whitehead was a Scouter’s Scouter. He joined his Troop at 12 years of age.  Eagle Scout, Distinguished Eagle Scout, GNYC President, Co-Chair of our Board until the day he died on Saturday morning in his sleep at home (at 92 years old).

I invite you to invite your entire Troop to accept the special privilege of representing Scouting at John C. Whitehead’s funeral service.  Please invite your full Troop in full uniform to attend the funeral service.

It will be very important to know as soon as possible if you can accept this invitation so we can plan accordingly.

Our Scouts are not asked to be a Color Guard nor speak at the service. The Scouts in uniform in attendance will simply say it all. Arrive at the church at 9:15 am.

Tuesday Feb 17th @ Saint Thomas Church (53rd Street & 5th Ave)

If you want to attend I need to know no later than the end of the day today. Kindly just send Mike an email.

Thanks.
