    JERSEY SHORE COUNCIL, BOY SCOUTS OF AMERICA SUGGESTED LIST OF DIGNITARIES TO INVITE TO YOUR EAGLE COURT OF HONOR First - do not start making plans or setting a date for the Eagle Court of Honor until you have received confirmation from the Jersey Shore Council Office that final approval and your certificate have been received from National. We have provided you with a list of Dignitaries you may consider in attendance. Your President and Political Figures may respond with a congratulatory letter or citation. A few may surprise you with a personal appearance. For the Eagle ceremony itself, there are several versions available in a book called "Eagle Ceremonies" at the Council Service Center. Another resource would be our Council Chapter of the "National Eagle Scout Association". Our Council's Representative would be available upon request at the Service Center. Plan your Eagle Court of Honor date at least thirty (30) days after your invitations are ready for mailing. This allows the Dignitaries enough time to R.S.V.P. and reserve the date on their calendar.

Attendees have had trouble deciding which they think has been the best, as every one of them has been fabulous. Each speaker has so generously and thoroughly shared their knowledge, their methodologies, and their passion for Dressage each year. Attendees walk away amazed and in awe of what all they have just experienced and learned at these 2-day ADU Dressage educational Seminars. Weather was an unexpected issue this January 10-11, 2015 weekend, as “sunny warm Texas” was anything but. A severe Arctic cold front, complete with freezing rain, snow, and ice, descended upon Texas on Friday afternoon. It started hitting the northern parts of our USDF Region 9 a couple of days earlier.

  • Guide to Council Camps National Parks California
    GUIDE TO COUNCIL CAMPS NATIONAL PARKS CALIFORNIA PARKS ORANGE COUNTY PARKS SAN BERNARDINO PARKS 1 A Few Basics. As all American, I will do my best to . Be clean in my outdoor manners, Be careful with fire, Be considerate ill the outdoors, and Be conservation minded. -The Outdoor Code, The Boy Scout Handbook, 1993 Edition, Page 55 The Outdoor Code is perhaps the most well-known and shortest statement of BSA outdoor policy. It can be expanded into six points that cover how your unit can have a 'low-impact' on your weekend car camping and backpacking outings: Pretrip Plans Wear Scout uniforms or other clothes that will blend into the surroundings. When picking camping equipment, such as tents, try to abide by the same rule. Pack food in containers that you'll carry home at the end of a trip. Take along (and use) trash bags. Plan to have 12 or fewer people staying in an individual campsite. Pick areas that are suited to the type of activity that you are planning. Using Trails Stay on the trail. Don't cut across switchbacks. Campsites Choose sites free of fragile plants. Camp out of sight of trails, streams, and lakes. Don't dig trenches around your tents or make any other unneeded holes. Fires Build fires only where appropriate and allowed. Try to get by with just propane stoves. Use existing fire rings instead of making new ones. Bring your own wood supply with you whenever possible. Open gathering may be prohibited. If you gather firewood, make sure you only burn small wood gathered from the ground.

Wilson iv ABSTRACT CAMPING APART: A CASE STUDY OF AFRICAN AMERICAN BOY SCOUTS IN NORTHEAST TEXAS William C. Wilson, MEd, MA Texas A&M University-Commerce, 2016 Advisor: Jessica Brannon-Wranosky, PhD The Boy Scouts of America, a Progressive organization, intended to train young men for leadership roles, organized in 1910 and within two years, excluded African American men and boys from joining the youth organization in the South due to legal racial segregation or Jim Crow laws. By the 1930s, the BSA opened membership to African Americans but only according to the local council’s discretion, which the region’s local school segregation plans often determined. In Texas, the NeTseO Trails Council of Paris, Texas, maintained segregation until 1970. African American scoutmasters led segregated troops, which African American donations funded. In the 1960s, scouting in these cities remained segregated, then legal desegregation via an official non-discrimination policy ended de jure segregation in scouting. Yet rather than integrate with white troops, many African Americans abandoned the organization.
