Congratulations to; Charlie Vorbach, Michael Landy, Anthony Crinieri and Jack O’Neill, for officially becoming Eagle Scouts, on March 19th. These four may have become Eagle Scouts when they were as young as 16, but they will hold that title for life. Congradulations to these scouts once again, as it shows how much devotion and effort these four put into Boy Scouts.

Snow Sports Merit Badge – Gore Mountain, NY
Posted by troop5bronxville under OutingsComments Off on Snow Sports Merit Badge – Gore Mountain, NY
The snow sports merit badge trip this year was a fun and challenging adventure. To earn this badge, Troop 5 scouts visited Gore Mountain in upstate New York where they demonstrated their skills in the snow. Certified Merit Badge Instructor Bill Haley led the scouts through the completion of most of the requirements. In order to get the badge, Scouts needed to show how to do specific maneuvers down and up the slope, what kind of precautions they need to take before going on a snow trip and how to seek help in case of an emergency. The trip, which included 2-day lift tickets to the mountain and cozy overnight accommodations at a cabin in camp Read, was challenging because the slopes were not easy and the Scouts had to demonstrate that they were at an intermediate or above ski level. During the day, Scouts traveled to the mountain while at night they worked together in the cabin to complete their worksheets. In the end, Scouts from different ranks were able to earn their badge.

Scouts showed their reverence to God by participating in Scout Sunday. This tradition, which started 100 years ago, it is celebrated every year and allows Scouts to live out their duty to God. This year the ceremony took place in St Joseph’s Catholic Church, and it was open to Scouts of all religions. A Scout is faithful to his religious duties, but he also respects the religious belief of others.
