~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ The 5 Star University of Scouting is just a few short weeks away. This year's event will be held on Saturday January 28, 2012 at St. John's Northwestern Military Academy, 1101 Genesee Street Delafield, Wisconsin 53018. The 5 Star University is designed to provide the advanced training that is needed by our District and Council volunteers including our Commissioner staffs. Due to travel distances, many of you were not able to make it to 5 Star last year. By bringing the event back to St. John's, travel should not be an issue for most of our Council. With almost 50 courses, there is sure to be something to interest everyone. Glacier's Edge is the host Council this year, so it would be great if we could have a good showing from our council. The featured lunch speaker is David Kopsa from the Summit. The Summit is an exciting new High Adventure Base and home to the 2013 National Jamboree. Since vision and plans for the Summit are still evolving, this presentation is sure to provide new information for all of us. The early registration deadline is Friday, January 13. Please take time today to go to http://fivestar.kintera.org , Checkout the course catalog and register today. John Huttenhoff Glacier's Edge Council - Council Commissioner |
