Lodge History

On May 1, 2023, the Greater Niagara Frontier Council merged with Iroquois Trails Council to form the Western New York Scout Council. In June 2023, Ho-De-No-Sau-Nee Lodge 159 and Ashokwahta Lodge 339 merged to form Erie Canal Lodge 159. The name was chosen due to the significance the Erie Canal had on statewide and national commerce in the early 1800s. The Canal Packet Boat was selected as a totem. The packet boat was the only means of transporting mail and passengers at that time. The Western New York Scout Council and the Five Rivers Council merged in November 2024 resulting in a new lodge (Eternal Flame).
