Leying Tang

Did you know that Liberty is now home to Sullivan County’s first and only all-female Scout troop?

Originally established as an all-boys troop over a century ago, everything changed in 2019 with the official transition of the Boy Scouts of America to Scouts BSA. This change opened doors for girls to embark on the same scouting journey.

But what drove this historic change? What inspired the switch?

Today, Radio Catskill’s Leying Tang delves into the story of Troop 1095, speaking not only to the scouts themselves but also to the dedicated leaders who guide them.

Think about the pets we typically have at home – cats, dogs, maybe a bird or two. But have you ever considered what it’s like to share your space with not one, not two, but five lizards?

Radio Catskill’s Leying Tang sat down with Wendy Townsend. She is a writer and an Iguana Specialist, deeply passionate about lizards and committed to their conservation.

Her journey with these creatures began at a young age, and it’s been a lifelong fascination ever since. With over five decades of experience, she’s not only mastered the art of caring for iguanas, but also formed deep connections with each of her scaly companions.
