District Award of Merit Recipients
Below
are the names of the District Award
of Merit honorees since 1971. As you can
see, the District has presented as few as one and as many as five awards in a
given year. Unfortunately, when the
number of awards has been small, it is not necessarily because there are not
worthy people out there. More often than
not it’s because NOBODY THINKS TO NOMINATE SOMEONE THEY KNOW.
Please take a moment to think about the Cub Scout and Boy Scout Adult Leaders, and Venture Crew Advisors you know in the District. Is there anyone you consider to be an outstanding example of someone who “goes above and beyond” for the Unit, District and Community? If there is, please fill out a District Award of Merit Nomination form and turn it in before the deadline! [Note: If someone has already received this award, he or she cannot receive it again.]
The District Award of Merit is a National BSA Award. Awardees are determined by the District Higher Awards Committee.
