Local Scouts have adventurous summer rafting, camping

Updated: Aug 20, 2024



Boy Scout Troop 1 of Bedford/Pound Ridge has had an adventurous summer, with a weeklong outing in July at the Ten Mile River Scout Camps in the Catskills and a two-night whitewater rafting trip in Pennsylvania’s Lehigh Valley in June.

Scouts spent the week at Ten Mile River working on merit badges including Motorboating, Rowing, Camping, Game Design, Canoeing, Public Speaking, Whitewater, Citizenship in the Nation, Life Saving, Small Boat Sailing, Electricity, Oceanography, Personal Management, Personal Fitness, Archery, Art, Chess, Communications and Pulp and Paper.

Over the summer they also saw a bald eagle, drove ATVs and threw tomahawks.

The troop was originally chartered by Pound Ridge Community Church in 1943, and since 2018 has been chartered by the Pound Ridge Fire Department

Since its inception, Troop 1 has had a total of 55 five Scouts earn the rank of Eagle, an accomplishment attained by just 6 percent of those who enter the program.
