MERGER: The Hudson Valley Council, and the Westchester Putnam Council have announced a merge into the Greater Hudson Valley Council. MORE INFORMATION CAN BE FOUND HERE

SCOUT SKILLS CHALLENGE:  Due to the lack of meetings I have a challenge for you: KNOTS! I will be challenging you to knots that you should know. This week’s knots will be the Two Half hitches and the Taut-line hitch.     CLicking on those links will bring you to the Animated Knots website for a refresher on how to tie the knows.  These knots are from Scout rank, so you all should know them. E-mail me a video of you doing them and you may win fun prizes and be featured on our website. There will be weekly Knot and lashing challenges so practice those knots. There will be weekly winners and an overall winner. If you do not send in knot tying videos you will be placed on the knotty list.

LOCK-IN ALTERNATIVE: If you have any ideas for something like a game or a movie night that can be done virtually please tell us so we can try to have some fun.
