🎉 Celebrating National Boy Scouts Day with the Greater New York Councils 🎉 Today, February 8th, we celebrate the remarkable journey and significant impact of the Boy Scouts of America, with a special focus on the contributions of the Greater New York Councils. This day is more than a look back at our rich history; it’s a celebration of our vibrant present and a look forward to our promising future. The Scouts of today continue to embody the principles of leadership, community service, and personal development that have been the foundation of the Boy Scouts of America for over a century. Through adventurous camping trips and community service projects, Scouting experiences pave the way for our youth to become conscientious, responsible, and productive members of society. We invite our Scouting community, volunteers, and supporters to share their favorite Scouting memories, achievements, and stories of how Scouting has positively impacted their lives. Let’s fill social media with our Scouting spirit! Use the hashtags #NationalBoyScoutsDay and #NYCScouting to join this national celebration. A special thank you goes out to all our dedicated volunteers and leaders who tirelessly work to make every Scouting adventure safe, fun, and meaningful. Here’s to more skills, more memories, and a greater impact. Happy National Boy Scouts Day! #Scouting #BoyScoutsOfAmerica #NationalBoyScoutsDay #GNYCScouts #Adventure #Leadership #CommunityService #NYCScouting

🌟 Wishing everyone a joyful and meaningful Kwanzaa celebration! Kwanzaa is much more than a holiday; it's a time to reflect on rich traditions and values that align closely with the principles we uphold in our organization. During these seven days, we recognize the importance of unity, self-determination, collective work, economic cooperation, purpose, creativity, and faith. To everyone celebrating, may this Kwanzaa reinforce these guiding principles and bring our community closer. Happy Kwanzaa! 🕯️

This month, 186 Law Enforcement Explorers from across the Greater New York Councils representing posts in partnership with NYPD, US CBP, MTAPD, DEA, and Homeland Security Investigations, participated in “All Night New York.” Highlights included exclusive access to locations around the city with visits to the Rockefeller Christmas Tree, the 64th floor of One World Trade, a visit to the 9-11 Memorial, a cruise on the Staten Island Ferry and an exclusive dance party at Grand Central Terminal!
