On June 6, 2013, the annual presentation of the Matinecock District Good Deed Award will be made to NYS Assemblyman, Hon. Andrew P. Raia.

In the greater Huntington area the Scouts have had steady membership increases for the last three years. Averages of 50 boys a year have met the requirements to be an Eagle Scout and thousands of service hours have been performed to benefit the community.

Ready for another fun-filled Scouting activity, but this time without the Scouts? Then be sure to attend the Matinecock District's annual Recognition Dinner on May 23rd. This is a non-uniform event to give Scouters and spouses the opportunity for a social gathering and to recognize many in our midst for some outstanding contributions to Scouting. Please follow the instructions on the registration form.

We cannot recognize those individuals unless YOU submit a nomination! Please use the Spark Plug nomination form or the District Award of Merit nomination form to nominate a worthy Scouter.
