Kecoughtan Kryer newsletter archive | Kecoughtan Emblems News Blog
The "Kecoughtan Kryer" was the official Lodge newsletter of Kecoughtan Lodge 463. The name was determined in a contest held in 1962, with the winning name submitted by Allen Harvester of Troop 31. On this page you will find information related to the Kryer, and links to PDF versions of over 100 previous editions spanning 4 decades for your reading pleasure.

Many of the PDF documents were made from photocopied versions of the Kryer, since originals were not available. The Council's archive of Kecoughtan Kryer editions was tragically lost in two separate fires. If you can provide any original editions to improve the quality of our online archive, or if you have any editions not listed below please send me an email!
