Troop 1 is excited to announce our end-of-year Court of Honor, where we will be celebrating the 100th anniversary of Carmel Troop 1's founding. One month from today, Sunday, June 14th, from 2-5 pm at Airport Park in Mahopac. (Roughly 14 minutes from Drew United Methodist Church). Please help us spread the word and bring back as many former Scouts and Scouters as possible!

To celebrate this momentous occasion, we have also created special Class B shirts. You can purchase one here and pick it up at the Court of Honor. All currently active Scouts will receive one as a gift from the Troop. https://carmel-troop-1-100.itemorder.com/shop/sale/. The sale closes May 27.

If you have any old photos that you would like to share, you can upload them here to include in a slideshow shown during the event. https://photos.app.goo.gl/13TZhMF2AaZyVFKL6
Please feel free to bring a dish to share if you are so inclined. We hope to see all of our current and former Troop 1 families there!

Class B for skills night tonight!   Bring some water.

(Because of the heat.)

Skills Night, Patterson Park   Attention all Star ranked Scouts:  MOVED TO MAY 19th

The annual Golden Ladle Cooking Competition will take place May 15-17 at the Hudson Valley Trust site. Scouts will be forming groups of no more than 4 and cooking 3 meals for judging (sign-up your team on Band).  Each scout should come to the planning meeting prepared with ideas/recipes for breakfast, lunch and dinner to discuss with their group (no hamburgers or hotdogs.) At least one meal must be cooked over a campfire. See attached rules, same as last year. Cost is expected to be up to $25 per person.

If your scout plans to go to Summer Camp (August 2-7), payment in full is due before the May 1 deadline to avoid a $15 late fee. Contact Blaine Robinson to arrange for payment to the troop.

Troop 1 now has an online store for Class B apparel. https://carmel-troop-1-2026.itemorder.com/ The store will close on Thursday April 30. The orders will be prepared after the store closes, and the Troop will distribute the orders when complete. This will be the only Class B apparel order prior to summer camp. Youth and adult sizes are available for order. The adult women's style long and short sleeve tees are only available in the Dri-Fit material. For the 50/50 Cotton please order the unisex style. There are also 2 color options, the usual green fabric and also a grey fabric with forest green logo. Please note, the existing green will remain the only official Class B for the troop. The grey is an option to buy if you want an extra item for activities when the green Class B isn't specified. There is also a draw-string bag available.
