Leader Awards Banquet and Celebration
Once again, the West District congratulates and says a special thank you to all the adult volunteers who make this program great! We held our annual leader’s awards and appreciation banquet on January 31st at 1st Presbyterian Church. Those in attendance enjoyed a great meal from Jim and Nick’s Barbecue, and a super program put together in large part by Nancy Cardwell. Also, a special congrats goes out to our 2013 Long Rifle recipients, Bill Schleuter and Chris Remke!!!

The Basics of Scouting ... CAMPING!!!
When the boys join Scouts, what is the most important thing they want to do??? Go camping, of course! And we have the answer for your camping needs. The spring Cub and Family and Boy Scout spring camporees are just around the corner, and be sure to remember Cub Scout day camps the first week of June, Cub and Webelos resident camps, and Boy Scout summer camp at Boxwell. We have all the activities your young men want to do, including bows and arrows, bb guns, hiking, fishing, camping, and great all around fun! Make sure to check the council website for sign up information, and we hope to see you on the camp grounds this summer!

Program Volunteers Needed
So you say you are looking for some way to get more involved?? Say your son has crossed over to Boy Scouts but you want to do more too? Well, quite frankly, we can use your help! Both the district committees and commissioners can always use more help, so we invite you to join up with our team and help out where you can. District Committee meets the first Tuesday of each month and our chairman invites you to join us. For more information, please give Mark Dunlap a call at 383-9724. We would love to have you be a part of our district team!
