| The Mohawk District is looking to recognize those dedicated Scouting volunteers who give above and beyond their normal ‘one hour per week’ of service. Awards will be presented for service performed and achievement attained in calendar year 2024. Deadline to submit award nominations is midnight on Sunday, May 25th. Awards will be presented at our District’s Annual BBQ and Awards Recognition on Tuesday, June 10th at 7 PM, at the First Reformed Church, 2172 W Glenville Rd, Amsterdam, NY 12010.
Our District Awards Committee is calling for nominations for the following recognition categories: |
- Unit Flint and Steel Awards. We all know that flint and steel are used to generate the spark during fire building, so this award recognizes one registered or non-registered volunteer who has provided the spark to ignite the fire within his or her unit. Noble qualities include: demonstrated high energy, enthusiasm, passion, and commitment to the Scouts and program within your Pack, Troop, or Post. Please submit only one nominee per unit; usually obtained via consensus of the unit Key 3. This award does not need approval / voting from the District Awards Committee so submit now and arrange to have your honoree and their supporters from your unit attend the recognition event.
- Cubmaster of the Year – the outstanding Cubmaster of the District for 2024 (should have a minimum of 2 years’ experience as a registered Cubmaster).
