Troop 1 Katonah, New York

Scouts from Katonah Troop 1 volunteered on September 8 during the Katonah 5K Race! This was a great community service opportunity for our troop. Photos by Alex Bacon. Here are some photos from our recent Thursday night troop meeting (Photos by Otto Vondrak). Katonah Troop 1 meets at Katonah Elementary School, in the gymnasium. Meetings start at 7:30 SHARP.   We discussed some easy methods for cooking meals on the trail, as well as the rules of safe food handling. Then we paired off and worked on our knot-tying skills.

Catamount Zip Line Trip - September 22 Don't forget this weekend is our day trip to the Catamount Zip Line. See Asst. Scoutmaster Chris Kristensen for more details. Fall Plant Sale The plants for our fall sale will be available for purchase from this Thursday until they are gone!  We will have the gorgeous mums in different sizes as well as some perennials to plant now!  Please plan to stop by our driveway (171 Bedford Rd) and tell your friends and neighbors to as well If there is anyone interested in helping sell the plants on Saturday here or downtown (if you're willing to transport them to a busy location), please let me know! Some members of the troop will be going to Catamount for the zipline trip but if you're not going, it would be great to have some help on Saturday for any amount of time you can spare. Give me a call (232-5420) or send me an email if you're available. Thanks and do plan to stop by to pick up some fall color!

Welcome to a great new year of Scouting activities! We have a lot of great events planned for throughout the year, and we're looking forward to sharing them with everyone! The updated troop calendar for 2012-2013 can be found by clicking the link at the top of this page, or by following this link: http://ktny.blogspot.com/p/2012-2013-troop-schedule.html Any updates to the troop calendar will be posted here. As we stressed in the opening meeting, please review our troop calendar with your own schedules for sports, school plays, band recitals, vacations, etc. We want your son to get the most out of Scouting, and we want them to participate as much as possible. Just a reminder, meetings start at 7:30p.m., and we meet at Katonah Elementary School gymnasium unless otherwise specified. We're gearing up to prepare for two great events later this month, and we need everyone's help and support to make it happen. Our next meeting is Thursday, September 14. See you there!
