District Award Nominations
Due by January Roundtable
Once a year, the Arrowhead District recognizes outstanding adult volunteers who help make our district successful at the district dinner. All Scouters are encouraged to nominate fellow Scouters who have served our district and communities' youth above and beyond the call of duty.
Nomination Form
Nominate Scouters for one of these awards:
District Award of Merit is a council award presented by districts in the same manner that the Silver Beaver is a national award presented by councils. The award is available to Scouters who render service of an outstanding nature at the district level. The award is made available annually on the basis of one for every 25 traditional units or fraction thereof. The district need not present all the awards to which it is entitled each year. It is not appropriate to nominate a Scouter who has already received this award. A professional Scouter or council employee may not receive this award based on employment service. However, a professional Scouter or employee who also serves as a volunteer Scouter may be eligible, based on volunteer service. Requirements: A nominee must be a registered Scouter. A nominee must have rendered noteworthy service to youth in Scouting, outside Scouting, or both. Note: The nature and value of “noteworthy service to youth” may consist of a single plan or decisions that contributed vitally to the lives of large numbers of youth or it may have been given to a small group over an extended period of time. Consideration must be given to the nominee’s Scouting position and the corresponding opportunity to render outstanding service beyond the expectations of that Scouting position. The nominee’s attitude toward and cooperation with the district and/or council is to be taken into consideration. Nominations cannot be considered for posthumous awards- Family of the Year Award.
The family is an important part of Scouting. Family support for each youth is vital to his or her success in Scouting. Those parents who volunteer as leaders are a vital support for other kids, as well as their own. The extra effort that parents put forth as leaders, in addition to their family responsibilities, deserve to be recognized. But when the whole family is involved in Scouting, they deserve recognition all the more. The Family of the Year award is a way to honor these families by selecting, from those nominated, the family whose work as a team in Scouting has made the greatest difference in our community. The Arrowhead District Shining Star Award is presented to Scouters who have: • Provided outstanding support in our district or to a unit in our district • Have rendered noteworthy service to our district and or council • Actively participates in training and earning Scouter awards, knots or keys • Is considered to be a positive role model for other leaders and youth • Scouters in the Arrowhead District are eligible and may be nominated by any registered Scouter.
