2020 Awardees 

District Award of Merit:

The District Award of Merit is a council award, presented by districts, to Scouters who render service of an outstanding nature at the district level.  A nominee must have rendered noteworthy service to youth in Scouting, outside Scouting, or both. The award can only be awarded once to any individual, and consideration is given to the nominee’s Scouting position and the corresponding opportunity to render outstanding service beyond the expectations of that Scouting position.

Of The Year Awards:

The of the Year Awards are Awarded to those individuals that have gone above and beyond in the position they are registered in Scouting in our district this past year. 

Spark Plugs:

This award is bestowed upon Volunteers and Youth of the District who give far more than the minimum daily requirement of Scouting to their unit, the district, or to scouting in general. The award is intended for the individual who has added that “Special Spark” to Unit outings or has given their time for a special event or project that has made the difference in the success of the Unit or District.

(In no Special Order)

We also will be honoring those who received the 2019 District Award of Merit, "Of the Years" & Spark Plugs.

Training Leaders Awards that have been received from April 2019 that have not been Awarded also will be Awarded.
