Troop Plant Sale Pick-Up

Hi Everyone,

Hope you've had a great spring break and that you've gotten lots of orders for plants!  Please bring the completed Master order form and all money to the scout meeting on Thursday. If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to call me this week. If you need an order form, there is one on the troop's website.  Thanks to those of you who've already given us your orders!

The plants will be arriving sometime the week of May 9. I will give you a call when your orders are ready to be picked up.  Please try to get them as soon as possible- I know the Camporee is the end of that week so that might create an issue for some of you- I can hold onto the plants for a couple of days if absolutely necessary.

If anyone is available during the day and willing to help unload and sort the plants, please let me know and I'll get in touch with you when I know exactly when the delivery is coming  (it's usually between 8-5, but I'll know better on Monday the 9th. We typically get the plants on either Wed or Thursday of that week)  

Thanks for your help making this a good fundraiser for the troop.  Also spread the word that we will be selling "leftovers" from our driveway while supply lasts.

—Happy Spring!  Mary Tschorn (232-5420)

Our visit to the Campfire Club of America

On Thursday April 16, 2009, Troop 1 Katonah visited the Campfire Club of America at their private camp in Chappaqua, where we were taught about conservation and preservation of the world's wildlife. When we arrived, we were introduced to the two men in charge of the club. They told us a little bit about how the club was started back around the turn of the century. Among their famous charter members were Theodore Roosevelt, Ernest Thompson Seton (the first Chief Scout), William Hornaday . The Campfire Club treated us to an amazing dinner which consisted of homemade burgers, hot dogs, french fries, and some deserts. After dinner, we walked around the lodge and observed the different trophy animals that were displayed all over the club. One room was dedicated to North America which consisted of examples of many animals from across the continent. In the other room, there many examples of wildlife from Africa. It was pretty cool. Who would have known there was that many animals in Afric...

History of Troop 1 Katonah - 1919-2009

1910s American businessman W.D. Boyce brought the concept of Boy Scouting to our shores in 1910. Boyce was convinced that the ideals of Scouting would be a perfect fit for the youth of America. At that time, our village was still settling down into its new location. Only thirteen years prior, the village was picked up and moved to avoid being wiped off the map by the new Muscoot Reservoir . Life in “New Katonah” also included new technology, with electric and telephone service introduced around 1916. The last horse was sold at the local livery stable in 1917, and automobiles were becoming more common. As America was looking forward to the promise of the next decade, the world was becoming a very different place. America was recovering from its first global conflict, then known as the “War to End All Wars.” The Armistice treaty was signed in November 1918, officially ending the hostilities of World War I. The newly formed League of Nations was formed to promote peace and broker resol...
