NARROWSBURG, NY — Thanks to a $500,000 gift from New York Jets owner Woody Johnson, seen at the right rear in the photo, Ten Mile River Scout Reservation will be able to provide new science, technology, engineering and math (STEM)-related merit badges and program activities to Scouts in many contemporary subjects, including environmental awareness and sustainability. The donation will go toward funding the construction of the Billy and Keith Johnson Scout Program Center.
Distinguished Eagle Scout and beloved board chairman of the Greater New York Council, the late John C. Whitehead, asked Johnson to accept the Sports “Good Scout” Award in recognition of the $500,000 gift. Construction is well underway, and the Center will open for Scouts this summer.
