Scouting changes lives, forever. Investing in Scouting provides once in a lifetime opportunities and life lessons for today’s youth that allow them to reach their full potential. There are stark differences between Scouts and non-Scouts in the areas of health, fitness, community service, etc. The success of Scouting depends on those individuals, corporations and foundations that support it.

  • Welcome! New Cub Scout Family
    WELCOME! NEW CUB SCOUTA FAMILY INFORMATION FAMILY GUIDE Why Join Cub Scouting? • If you could give only one gift to the young people who are most important in your life, what would it be? No matter what your family situation is, it is within your power to help these children grow into people with a good feeling about themselves and a genuine concern for others. Cub Scouting can assist you in providing this greatest gift of all. • Cub Scout-age children benefit developmentally from belonging to a small group of peers. Your child will be a part of a den, a small group of Cub Scouts in the same grade level and who are of the same gender. Through this sense of belonging, children build self-esteem and learn to get along with others. • As a parent, you want to be assured that the groups that your child joins will teach values consistent with good citizenship, character development, personal fitness, and leadership. The values we seek to instill are found in the Scout Oath and Scout Law. Scout Law Scout Oath A Scout is trustworthy, loyal, helpful, On my honor I will do my best to do friendly, courteous, kind, obedient, my duty to God and my country and cheerful, thrifty, brave, clean, to obey the Scout Law; to help other and reverent. people at all times; to keep myself physically strong, mentally awake, and morally straight. We know that kids do not join Cub Scouting for character building. Kids join because it is fun. Your child will learn great lessons, but they will be far too busy having fun to notice.

  • 2020 Leatherstocking Council Annual Report
    LEATHERSTOCKING COUNCIL 2020 ANNUAL REPORT from the council president The challenges are what define us. I’d like to start off by saying thank you. Between our volunteers and our donors, you have done so much to help continue our mission. The young men and women of our program thank you as well. 2020 started as most years do, but as you know, by mid-March things changed drastically. Even with COVID, Scouting lived on. We adapted and overcame. We met in our dining rooms or back yards and utilized online meeting programs. But that’s what scouting is about, being prepared for the unexpected. I’m proud of each of you for continuing. Matthew E. Dziedzic Leatherstocking Even during these difficult times, we had some great successes. Thirty seven Scouts achieved Council President their rank of Eagle and 88 Cub Scouts earned their Arrow of Light. Additionally, we met the Barnes Family Challenge for Camp Kingsley. We received 382 gifts and pledges totaling $326,000 to be used to create a new welcome center. Seven local foundations answered our call to support our efforts, including three who supported our mission for the first time. One of our anonymous donors generously increased their normal pledge from $750 to $20,000 so that we could meet our goal and deadline by March 1st. Again, thank you! Sadly this year we lost some loyal supporters, one being Jean Mary Hastie. Her estate donated all the billboards and advertisements and even a sixty-second television commercial that aired 180 times honoring our Council’s Class of 2020 Eagle Scouts.
