Every day I am sent updates and announcements for upcoming events in the Greater Hudson Valley of New York because of my involvement in youth based volunteer efforts, real estate, and my Hudson Valley Happenings with Paddy Pizappi blog. This morning I received a special one regarding the formation of a Cub/Boy Scout Troop forming for special needs boys. This troop will be sponsored by the 105th Airlift Wing of the New York Air National Guard out of Stewart Air Base in Newburgh. I feel the need to pass on this information to my readers in hopes that some lucky young men will be able to take advantage of this opportunity.

Paddy, sounds like a real worth while need and program. Good luck and I hope that all goes well...
Me too Michael Thanks for stopping by.
Every boy should have the chance to be a Boy Scout. Three cheers for your local Air National Guard for making the troop possible.
I think they are really great. Our unit is involved in so many things in this community. They are wonderful.
Hi Paddy, my son went thru cub scouts and is now a boy scout. I can't tell you how happy I am that this troop is being formed!!
Good for your son and great for these special needs kids that will now find a place to fit in. Thanks for the comment Tony.
Hi Paddy,
I think it is great. If you ever want to bring them to ride horses the staff here at Dorian Equestrian would be happy to help. We are located in Campbell Hall NY 201-697-4785 (cell)
