State of North Carolina February 2015 BOY SCOUTS OF AMERICA ANNUAL REPORT TO THE STATE OF NORTH CAROLINA FEBRUARY 2015 One hundred years ago – five years after the Boy Scouts of America’s founding – Scout leaders recognized the need for a special recognition of those Scouts who truly committed themselves to living by both the Scout Oath and the Scout Law. Thus began The Order of the Arrow – “Scouting’s National Honor Society.” The “OA,” as it is often called today, recognizes those Scouters who exemplify the character qualities of Scouting, practice responsible camping methods, encourage growth of Scouting ideals in their peers, and lead in service to others. All OA members are selected for membership by their local Scout troops. The OA provides these members unique opportunities for high adventure, service, and leadership development. Since 1915, communities across North Carolina have benefitted from a multitude of the OA’s service projects. Likewise, young men have developed leadership skills that have benefited them in their personal and professional lives and, in turn, enriched our State. North Carolina is currently home to nearly 6,000 OA members from 11 OA chapters – one in each of the State’s Scout councils. The OA provides annually more than 30,000 hours of service to local communities. In celebration of the Order of the Arrow’s centennial anniversary, North Carolina’s OA chapters have together committed to perform at least one service project in each of our 100 counties. As you read this report, assembled by North Carolina attorney, Eagle Scout, and OA member Jay Teeter, whom I thank, you will recognize the many benefits our Honor Society, the Order of the Arrow, provides to our State’s youth and to our fellow citizens. Yours sincerely, Paul M.

Some of our service projects take place at our home Camp John J. Barnhardt. Camp Barnhardt holds a summer camp every year for boy scouts from all over the state. Camp Barnhardt’s summer camp staff is mainly made up of youth arrowmen (Order of the Arrow members that are under the age of 21) from our lodge. One of our strongest beliefs is that summer camp should provide a safe and fun environment where young men can come and have fun while in nature. We believe this because we have a large amount of troops that come from urban environments. This is one of the only low cost places where they can experience nature in a fun and safe manner. Many of the youth that come to our camp have it rough at home. Camp provides them with a safe haven during the summer giving them a break from their home. Our service projects are a way of supporting the summer camp. We set up tents and cots for the young men to use, and after they are done we take them down. We do anything from painting buildings to preparing buildings to be renovated. Picture One shows just a fraction of the cots that we setup and take down each year. Camp serves about 400 people every week for the five week summer camp. We set up a cot for every single person. Our camp sites that the scouts stay in are spread out over 140 acres. Other service projects of ours are to help maintain the ecosystem in and around our camp. One service project was to pick up all of the debris that had accumulated at the bottom of one of our lakes at the camp. This project required the lake to be drained. The lake had all kinds of litter on the bottom of it, coming from over 50 years of use. Picture Two showcases another one of our many projects that helps support the summer camp staff. This picture shows us clearing the upstairs of the staff lounge. The staff lounge was built in the late 1960s and has not been remodeled since then. This is one of the many ways we help give back to the summer camp staff. Our local council, the Central North Carolina Council, shows us its full support by providing us with the materials that we requiere to complete these projects. For the 2015 year we have our new ordeals planned, which are the events where we conduct our service projects to better our wonderful camp. 7 DANIEL BOONE COUNCIL (TSALI LODGE) Cub Scouts 2,217 Boy Scouts 1,404 Order of the Arrow Members 327 2014 Eagle Scouts 81 Venturers 208 Explorers 104 Total Youth Members 3,933 Total Adult Volunteers 1,716 8 100th Anniversary Report to the State Tsali Lodge, Order of the Arrow Daniel Boone Council, BSA 9 Tsali Lodge 333 W.

It shall be the policy of the Tidewater Council, Boy Scouts of America that all such incidents be reported by the Scout Executive or his designate as outlined below.

  • 2020 Massabesic Klondike Derby Rules, Instructions, and Information
    2020 Massabesic Klondike Derby Rules, Instructions, and Information (Patrol Leaders, Unit Leaders and station staff should read and know before the event. Be aware changes have been made since last year.) The Klondike Derby is a test of scout skills and of the patrol method. If your troop routinely practices traditional scout skills and is “scout-led”, you’ll find nothing unfamiliar with what is expected of you to score well. No matter your score, your participation in this event will help make you a better troop and will strengthen the bonds that make good patrols. Ideally, scouts will learn their strengths and weaknesses and have a fun weekend. We are very proud of all our participants. CHANGE FROM PREVIOUS YEARS: Senior patrols have been eliminated in favor of a rank handicapping system. In previous years, patrols of higher ranking scouts were segregated into a “senior” division. However, they still completed the same challenges as “regular” patrols at all stations, and typically only a very small number of patrols were identified as a senior patrol. This year all patrols will be handicapped based on the ranks of patrol members, which will level the playing field for all patrols. Details of the handicapping system are described in the scoring section below. Patrols should be “natural” patrols as much as possible; if natural patrols need to be merged to crew a Klondike sled, efforts should be made to average out ranks as much as possible. Troops must submit a patrol roster including each scout’s rank at registration, at which time the patrol’s handicap will be determined.

  • Scoutspeak 101 November 2020
    Washington Crossing Council Scout-Speak 101 A guide to help you understand the various terms, phrases, program components and acronyms that are used in the BSA program. Organization COUNCIL – A council is a voluntary association of citizens, including representatives of organizations that are chartered by the Boy Scouts of America, to promote the Scouting program within a geographic area. There are four major functions involved in achieving the purposes of a council: membership, fund development, program, and unit service. These four functions and all other responsibilities are accomplished in each council in a manner that is consistent with local conditions and circumstances. DISTRICT – Unlike councils, which establish policies and programs, districts carry out the programs and policies of the council in their respective territories. For the purpose of unit service, program administration, membership, and fund development, the council territory is divided geographically into several districts, as determined by the executive board. The supervision of Scouting in each district is exercised by the council through a district committee consisting of all council members residing within the district, chartered organization representatives, and district members at large. KEY 3 - The Council Key 3 consists of the Council President, Council Commissioner, and Scout Executive. They meet informally as necessary to ensure proper coordination of the work of the council. They furnish liaisons between the commissioner staff and the various committees of the council. They may also provide proposals and recommendations to, but in no way usurp the authority of, the executive board or executive committee of the board. November 20, 2020 Page 1 of 16 Council Support The thinking here is that Scouts and volunteers see only 20 percent of what councils provide to members.

  • 2020 Giving Guide
    Commonwealth of Virginia Office of the Governor HISTORY Executive Directive NUMBER TWELVE (2020) CONTINUING THE COMMONWEALTH OF VIRGINIA CAMPAIGN: EMPLOYEE WORKPLACE GIVING AND VOLUNTEERISM Importance of the Initiative The Commonwealth of Virginia Campaign (CVC) is an annual charitable giving campaign created in 1997 under the Virginia Department of Human Resource Management (DHRM) to promote a culture of caring and giving within the Commonwealth of Virginia. The CVC assists the Commonwealth’s employees in their charitable giving by providing a single vehicle for charitable contributions that minimizes workplace disruptions and maximizes charitable contributions. Since its inception, employees of the Commonwealth have given over $50 million, including $2.2 million in 2019. In 2010, Governor McDonnell recognized the CVC as an annual campaign and created the Advisory Council in Executive Order 26 (2010). Recognizing the importance of charitable giving by state employees, Governor McAuliffe continued the CVC through Executive Order 27 (2014). In his Executive Order, Governor McAuliffe expanded the size of the Advisory Council and established Agency Coordinators to organize the CVC within each agency. The success of the campaign in 2020 is vital due to the global impact of the COVID-19 pandemic. Now more than ever, Virginians helping Virginians when they are able is important. The CVC’s newly-designed website makes it easy for state employees to support trusted local and global charities. The website contains everything employees need to support charities, including online pledges using ePledge. I know that state employees stand ready at a moment’s notice to step up and help where needed and, with the support and guidance of Virginia’s leadership, can accomplish anything.
