Boy Scout Leaders 
Please contact Mike Contreras and let him know about your summer camp experience.  He needs to know what camp you attended, how many days and how many scouts went. We have 43 units that have not turned in any info.  Please email us your numbers.


District Award of Merit

We are rapidly coming on the time of giving thanks and sharing  with others.  As we reflect on everything that has gone on in the past year, we all can remember those Scouters that always seem to be there, those that always volunteer or just pitch in to help without being asked, or have been to the "go to" person for our youth.  This is the time you can express your thanks by letting us recognize these great Scouters. 

More information on our District website at http://northstar.lvacbsa.org/


We are in need of Unit Commissioners

Job description:  The unit commissioner is the connecting link in the chain between the troop and the pack. Often, the same unit commissioner will serve both a pack and troop in the same community.
 
For more information contact Rob Reed.

 

District Eagle Boards of Review are every 3rd Tuesday of each month at the LDS church building on Lone Mountain. If any one has questions about them please contact Kris Alexander at kristopher.w.alexander@gmail.com.
