Congratulations to our newest Order of the Arrow members, Ian F., Greg C., Billy P., and Ryan K.! They completed their ordeal at Durland Scout Reservation and are now members of Ktemaque Lodge 15. The OA is the service organization for the Boy Scouts, helping to maintain our many camps and other properties.
Thanks also to Nick K., Daniel E., Sean B., Kyle W., and Peter Baron for helping out with the Katonah-Bedford Hills Volunteer Ambulance Corp. chicken BBQ fundraiser. KBHVAC sold more than 480 chicken dinners! A donation was also made to Neighbors Link of Mt. Kisco. Thanks to the Scouts for their help during the event!
