This Day in History: 1965-03-13

Five Cub Scouts and two Boy Scouts from Troop 50 hiked to Sterling Furnace under the guidance of Paul Taylor, outdoor activities chairman of Pack 50.  The boys explored the old railroad, collect rock samples and learned about the place where the chain was forged which was stretched across the Hudson during the Revolutionary War.  The Cubs were Steven Dunn, Donald Kimber, Marton Fronius, Michael Smith, and Ben Taylor.  Bruce Barbour and Paul Taylor were the Scout who assisted.
