The Leatherstocking Council provides character development and leadership skills training to 1,700 Scouts in Delaware, Herkimer, Madison, Oneida, Otsego and Schoharie counties, as well as parts of Hamilton and Lewis counties. We also maintain and staff Camp Kingsley near Rome, NY for Cub Scouts Summer Camp and adventure weekends throughout the year for Cub Scouts and Scouts, BSA.  Scouts of all ages (5-18) learn valuable life skills, self-reliance, leadership, and build character. More importantly, Scouts have fun while learning and make lifelong friends in the process. 

When your child joins Scouts, they are embarking on a trail that could ultimately lead them to the rare and distinguished rank of Eagle Scout. Becoming an Eagle gives your Scout and edge in life and helps ensure that they have the leadership skills, character, self-confidence and experiences to succeed in their future endeavors, whether that be college, the trades, the military or community service.
