On Monday night, Troop 440-Monroe held our bi-annual Court of Honor ceremony at the American Legion Post 488 to award and recognize the members of Troop 440 for their accomplishments in rank advancements, merit badges earned, religious education awards and military veteran service awards.

Troop 440-Monroe also recognized our 7 senior Scout members that will be moving on to college this fall. Additionally, an Eagle Scout ceremony was held for 2 of our Scouts to recognize their accomplishment of earning the coveted Eagle Scout rank, the highest rank in Scouting.

Eagle Scout Ben Lasala did his Eagle Scout project for the Town of Monroe in 2025 which was the construction of a food pantry storage unit with refrigeration located at Monroe Town Hall.

Siddharth “Siddhi” Ranganathan also did his Eagle Scout project for the Town of Monroe in 2025 which was the beautification of Mombasha Park thereby constructing a new park entrance sign and landscape upgrades in which the sign he designed became the prototype for signs displayed throughout the Town of Monroe.

Troop 440-Monroe congratulates our 5 scouts that the earned Eagle Scout over the past Scouting year as well as all our Scouts for their well deserved accomplishments. We also recognize our Troop 440 adult leaders and our American Legion Post 488 representatives Marty Currid, Kurt Haug and Andy King (founder of Troop 440 in 1971). Without their dedication and support, none of this would be possible.

On Monday evening, June 15th, Troop 440-Monroe participated in the annual flag retirement ceremony along with Legionnaires, Sons of the American Legion and Ladies Auxiliary of the The American Legion Post 488, our charter organization, and members of the Monroe community. This was to commentate Flag Day which was on Sunday.

Following the lowering of the flag to be retired and raising the new “Old Glory”, the participants then properly burned the flags with respect and honors that are no longer fit to be flown which were collected at the American Legion Post 488 over the past year.

It is with great pride and joy that Troop 440 announces our newest Eagle Scout, Tyler Wood!

This evening Tyler presented himself to the Greater Hudson Valley Council District Eagle Board and following a Board of Review was elevated to the rank of Eagle Scout.

Earning the rank of Eagle Scout is not something that happens overnight. It represents years of steady commitment, quiet perseverance, leadership growth, service to others, and living out the Scout Oath and Law even when no one is watching. Tyler has put in that work, step by step, and tonight that dedication was recognized.

With this achievement, Tyler becomes the 78th Eagle Scout in the proud history of Troop 440. He now joins a legacy of young men who have set a high standard for character, service, and leadership in our troop and in our community.

Tyler will now honorably wear his late Grandfather’s Eagle Scout medal that his Grandfather earned in 1952 and proudly keep his memory alive.

Please join Troop 440 in congratulating Tyler on this truly meaningful and well-earned accomplishment.

Troop 440 participated in the annual Monroe Clean Sweep this morning. Our boys circled the ponds in town and collected numerous bags of garbage, especially inside airplane park. Come on Monroe, we can do better. Let’s all make an effort to pick up our trash.

Unfortunately the turnout was much lower compared to past years. Even the electronic recycling and paper shredding vendors were quiet. Maybe next year with better planning we can even have the Town Highway Dept back again to assist with tire and textile recycling as nobody was there today to help out.

Troop 440 had a great time this past Saturday with an 11 mile New York City urban hike.
We began with a subway ride from Washington Heights to Cadman Plaza in Brooklyn whereby we walked over the Brooklyn Bridge into Manhattan. From there, we hiked from the tip of Manhattan, stopping at numerous attractions along the way, and finally ended at Columbus Circle and Central Park South. The weather was picture perfect and everyone enjoyed the day.

This past weekend, Troop 440-Monroe went backpacking in Harriman State Park - Pine Meadow Lake.
Our Scouts learned the fundamentals of camping in the forest, proper planning, cooking over a campfire, leave no trace and most importantly packing light.
All our scouts had a great time and are already looking forward to our next event.

Last Wednesday, Troop 440 - Monroe welcomed our newest Eagle Scout, Matthew Capps.

Matthew presented himself to the GHVC Delaware-Hudson District Eagle Board for his Board of Review and was elevated to the prestigious rank of Eagle Scout.

Reaching Eagle is not something that happens quickly or easily. It reflects years of dedication, hard work, leadership, service to others and a consistent commitment to living by the Scout Oath and Law. Matt has demonstrated all these qualities throughout his journey, and his efforts were justly recognized.

With this achievement, Matt becomes the 77th Eagle Scout in the proud history of Troop 440, joining a long line of Scouts who have set the bar for leadership, character, success and service within our troop and community.

Congratulations Matt. We are all proud of you and know that you are an inspiration to all the members of Troop 440 who follow your path on their trail to eagle.

This past weekend, March 13-15, members of Troop 440-Monroe went camping with Cub Scout Pack 148-Woodbury at D&H Canal Scout Camp.
All our Scouts, Leaders and Parents had a great time working together on numerous advancement requirements, going on an afternoon hike, cooking lunch over a campfire, eating very well and so much more.
It was great watching our older Scouts working with and mentoring the younger Cub Scouts. Everyone at Troop 440 is already looking forward to our next overnight campout in April on a backpacking trip to Pine Meadow Lake.
