Leatherstocking Council Program 
 Kick-Off Meeting
 
 
The Council was very happy to see so many units attend this years Program Kick-offs at Camp Henderson and New Hartford to find out what our council has planned for the 2016-2017 program year.  We had Scout Units from all four of our districts represented at both meeting nights. Thank you for all of your feedback on our presentations.

If you missed the meetings, please follow the links below to view the Program and Popcorn Kickoff presentations on your own. Units still have time to earn the additional 5% commission in the popcorn sale by attending a future training.  Districts will be scheduling their own kickoff programs between now and August 18. For more information on the popcorn training, contact Tom Labayewski or Peter Miller, and for the district kickoffs, contact your District Executive directly.

If your unit needs additional training or help, contact us at leatherstocking@scouting.org and the right person will reach out to you.

Patriot Pizza Continues at Camp Kingsley
Camp Kingsley Wednesday Night "Patriot Pizza" Sales

For the second year, Camp Kingsley will offer campers the ability to order pizza for their Wednesday night arrival to camp.

Here's how it works: Order pizzas at check-in (and before 7:30pm) and pay for them as part of your registration process.  Pizzas will be available at the dining hall between 7:30pm and 8:30pm.

All pizzas are $8 each and are your choice of Colonial Cheese or Patriot Pepperoni.  Pizzas will be boxed, and paper plates & napkins will be provided.  Bring them back to your campsite to enjoy and take a break after a long day of setting up camp!
