November 19th - Day Hike Backpacking Trip @ Blydenburg Park, Smithtown
Thanks to all who participated in this Sunday’s hike and especially Mr. Ryan, our organizer.   Everyone seemed to have great time and in many cases experienced something new.   Hopefully this great day hike will encourage more boys and leaders to participate in a potential backpacking trip in the spring.  The Scouts did an excellent job leading the walk.  We may try and organize a camping trip around this park with a hike on the LI Greenbelt trail.  Stump Pond Hike Flyer with Trail Map

November 3 - 5th, 2006 - Webelos Woods at Baiting Hollow Scout Camp
We camped next to the Webelos from Pack 244 and Pack 6249 and ran the backpack relay station.  The boys did a great job in setting up a model campsite with no help from any adult leaders.  Dinner was a big hit and some really cool bamboo furniture was lashed together by a bunch of the scouts.  Pictures coming soon...

October 13 - 15th, 2006 - Fall Camporee at Longwood Estates
We had 26 boys and 10 leaders attend the camporee over the 2 days and our scouts had a great time.  The hard work of Greg and his staff, including Peter J., Billy B., Chris R. and Michael F. paid off.  The various events seemed to interest the scouts and we had great participation.  In fact, there may be several Karaoke videos floating around demonstrating some of our Scouts' new talents.  There were several highlights over the weekend including Troop 244 winning "Best Campsite" for the first time at this annual event.  This is a real accomplishment for the boys!  We also had one of the winners in the scoutmaster cook-off with Mr. Koridis’s Shin-a Fish.   Another big highlight for the boys was Mr. Ryan the “Dutch Oven Master” with his great desserts and other treats.  Next year we will even have an entry in the "Pumpkin Chuckin' Competition" and not just a target (thank you Tommy L.).

September 23 - 24th, 2006 - Cedar Point Campout
Our first campout of the new scouting year was at Cedar Point in East Hampton.   Parents and siblings came out for a Family BBQ on Sunday. See pictures here
