54 Years and Counting for Eastchester Scouts
After toiling for months over a new lease agreement with the Town of Eastchester, the Girl Scout Cabin located on Highland Ave. in Eastchester will remain in their possession and a new lease has been signed.
An exorbitant sense of relief is being felt across Eastchester and Tuckahoe as well as surrounding areas, all thanks to a brand new lease agreement that has been reach between the Town of Eastchester and Girl Scouts Heart of the Hudson, which overseas troops in seven counties in the Hudson Valley, including the Eastchester/Tuckahoe Scout troop.
With the ability to maintain daily use of the cabin, schedule all meetings and events and also allow for other civic organizations to use the cabin throughout the year, the agreement ends what was a tense few months where Scout leaders were left in the dark about the fate of their beloved cabin.
