I just spoke to Joe Bradley’s sister who was so appreciative of all the love that was shown last night. She asked if we could do something at tonights wake. I proposed doing a flag ceremony (flags, pledge, scout oath & law) and she loved the idea.

I need as many scouts as possible in Full Class A Uniform. We will likely be doing this at approx 730p.

Please let Mike know if you can attend.

Thanks.

Wow, Summer camp is almost here. We will be meeting at Trinity on Sunday at 9A sharp (scouts do NOT need to be in uniform). We plan to leave shortly after that and head up to TMR.

The following parents will be providing transportation to camp:

Bernadette

Ester & Jeff

Eric

John S

Martina

I want to thank those who are helping us get our scouts to camp, and also those who will help us once camp is over getting them home.

Here are directions to Aquehonga:

Take the Triboro Bridge onto Major Deegan Expressway (I-87 North)

to New York State Thruway over the Tappan Zee Bridge.

Exit #16 onto Route 17.

Travel on Route 17 for 44 miles to exit 104 (Monticello Raceway).

Travel on 17B for about 6.7 miles into White Lake and blinking light. At 0.7 miles beyond the blinker, make a left hand turn on Route 55 West.

Follow Route 55 for about 4 miles to the Ten Mile River Camp cut-off on the right hand side (County Route 26).

Look for Aquehonga Sign on the right

*****VERY IMPORTANT*******

I have only received medicals from a few scouts. I do not want to have any issues when we get to camp, so please reach out to Mike before Sunday so he can tell you everything you need to have filled out.

Thanks.
