South Central Area Council was pleased to partner with Capital District Area Council in planning and presenting the 2017 Spring Convention and Executive Board Meeting "Sparkle, Shimmer and Shine" at the Otesaga Resort Hotel in Cooperstown April 28-30, 2017.  A great time was had by all attendees!  There was talk that another Convention should be held at the Otesaga sooner rather than later.

The website has many links where you can become more informed about the     HOPE for Ariang Foundation as well as learning about life in South Sudan.           This topic correlates well with several  Common Core objectives for our                 New York State students.

Each of the chapters have chosen to support the Hope for Ariang Foundation.
