Troop 1 helps raise money for Scouts with special needs at annual Bowl-o-ree

Executive Board Member Bill Kelly had the vision and desire twenty-nine years ago to organize a fundraiser to support youth with special needs. As a result of organizing each of the past twenty-eight Bowl-O-Rees, over a million dollars has been raised to support this initiative. Our in-school Champions program for youth with special needs is being offered to nearly 1,000 youth in the Yonkers and Mt. Vernon School Districts. Troop 1 Katonah participated in the William E. Kelly Bowl-o-ree on March 6, 2011 at the Carmel Bowl. We had 7 boys bowl and they raised over $660. All the boys will receive patches and three boys raised over $100 each and will receive t-shirts.
