A big thank you to Appreciation Dinner on March 2, 2013. all of our vendor partners this year. Provided By: Message From Key 3 Dear Scouters, Our position as a council is to follow the rules and regulations of the National Council, BSA. You may have seen the national/local media coverage surrounding the BSA’s membership standards. Currently, the BSA National Board is discussing the possibility of removing the national membership restriction regarding sexual orientation. At this time, the policy is under review and will be under discussion at the National board meeting on February 5, 2013. Out of respect for the diverse beliefs of our chartered organizations, BSA leadership is discussing the possibility of removing the national membership restriction regarding sexual orientation. While there would be no national membership policy regarding sexual orientation, the chartered organizations that oversee and deliver Scouting will continue to accept membership and select leaders consistent with each organization’s mission, principles, or religious beliefs. This revision allows Scouting’s members and parents to choose a local unit, chartered to an organization with similar beliefs that best meets the needs of their family. Under this proposed policy, the BSA would not require any chartered organization to act in ways inconsistent with that organization’s mission, principles, or religious beliefs. If your local unit that is chartered locally chooses to have a membership standard, it will be accepted by the council. If you have any questions about the proposed policy change please email Scott at [email protected]. Above all, the mission of the Boy Scouts of America is to prepare young people to make ethical and moral choices over their lifetimes by instilling in them the values of the Scout Oath and Law. Our role is to ensure that we are providing a quality Scouting program for the more than 4028 youth served in the Northeast Iowa Council. Sincerely, Annual Meeting Notice On Saturday, March 2, 2013 the Northeast Iowa Council will hold its Annual Meeting in conjunction with the Scouter Appreciation Dinner at Johnson’s Conference Center in Elkader, IA. The meeting is open to all Scouters. Those eligible to vote are all currently registered Chartered Organization Representatives, representing chartered Dave Wagner Rick Leute Scott Seibert organizations within the Council Council President Council Commissioner Scout Executive/CEO geographic boundaries, and registered duly elected Council Members-at-Large. Invitations with more information will follow. See the reservation sheet on page 5. Memorial/Tribute Fund Words too often do not express the sentiment we feel at the death of a friend.

Lau Dick & Arlene Elliott Thank you to Tri-State Shred for donating their In Memory of Darrell Allman services to the Northeast Iowa Council. We had Dick & Arlene Elliott several years of documents that needed to be shredded, and Tri State Shred did it for nothing! Currently, Lake John Deere continues to dewater in order for the council to economically remove 60-80,000 cubic yards of silt. It has been a warm winter so the conditions have not been ideal. We have had several wins in the project as we were able to repair our dam gate. We now will be able to maintain our flow once the lake is done. The lake committee has been busy making decisions on the silt sediment site, and working with the IDNR on making sure that our project meets all of the rules and regulations that we need to adhere to. There is not a week that goes by that our committee does not have communication. They are hard at work to ensure that everyone in the council is able to enjoy Camp C.S. Klaus and Lake John Deere. Currently we have raised $251,107 for the project! If you would like to support the project please contact Scott Seibert at [email protected]. Thank you to everyone that has pledged their support for the lake already. You are impacting the $251,107 next several generations of Scouting at Camp Klaus with your support. If you can’t help financially, we ask that you support the lake by participating in our camp card sale beginning in March. DID YOU KNOW? The Northeast Iowa Council can accept mutual funds or shares of stock. Donating shares that have increased in value is a good way to avoid capital gain taxes.

A new year is great starting point for new opportunities. But, be- fore we forget about 2017, I thought it would be a good idea to look back at the year and mention a handful of highlights. Welcome 1 100th Anniversary: Obviously, the biggest was the 100th Anniversary of the Upcoming Events 2 Council. When we first started discussing this milestone a few years ago, I looked around to find what other councils who have turned 100 had done to celebrate. Council News 3-4 The one thing that became clear is that there aren’t many other “100 year old’s” out there. Sure, we aren’t the only ones, but we are in the minority when it Quick News 5-6 comes to having this much tenure. We looked back on these years through spe- cial events such as the Appreciation Dinner and the Eagle Brunch. Through the Video Spotlight 7 work of Paul Lewis, the first volume of council history was published. Training Corner 7 Youth Protection Training: As of today, National has adopted the same policy, but to keep our kids and adults safe, we mandated that our leadership be youth Dellaykee District Update 8 protection trained before becoming registered. I am proud to say our leaders responded and we have one of the highest percentages in the Central Region. 9 Dubuque District Update Summer Camp: While we had some weather challenges, we had another great year of attendance at Camp C.S.
