Concurrent with my service to Scouting, I have been an avid collector of Scouting memorabilia with a particular interest in commissioner insignia. Over the years, I've acquired some information on the history of commissioner service and some documentation on various areas of commissioner insignia, but have not found a single document which covers both the historical aspects of such insignia while describing and identifying all the commissioner insignia in all program areas - Cub Scouting, Boy Scouting, Exploring, Venturing, and the various roundtables. This project does that and provides a pictorial identification guide to all the insignia as well as other uniform badges that recognize commissioners for tenure or service.

  • A Cartographic Depiction and Exploration of the Boy Scouts of America’S Historical Membership Patterns
    A Cartographic Depiction and Exploration of the Boy Scouts of America’s Historical Membership Patterns BY Matthew Finn Hubbard Submitted to the graduate degree program in Geography and the Graduate Faculty of the University of Kansas in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts. ____________________________ Chairperson Dr. Stephen Egbert ____________________________ Dr. Terry Slocum ____________________________ Dr. Xingong Li Date Defended: 11/22/2016 The Thesis committee for Matthew Finn Hubbard Certifies that this is the approved version of the following thesis: A Cartographic Depiction and Exploration of the Boy Scouts of America’s Historical Membership Patterns ____________________________ Chairperson Dr. Stephen Egbert Date approved: (12/07/2016) ii Abstract The purpose of this thesis is to examine the historical membership patterns of the Boy Scouts of America (BSA) on a regional and council scale. Using Annual Report data, maps were created to show membership patterns within the BSA’s 12 regions, and over 300 councils when available. The examination of maps reveals the membership impacts of internal and external policy changes upon the Boy Scouts of America. The maps also show how American cultural shifts have impacted the BSA. After reviewing this thesis, the reader should have a greater understanding of the creation, growth, dispersion, and eventual decline in membership of the Boy Scouts of America. Due to the popularity of the organization, and its long history, the reader may also glean some information about American culture in the 20th century as viewed through the lens of the BSA’s rise and fall in popularity. iii Table of Contents Author’s Preface ................................................................................................................pg.

  • Suggested Presentation of Masonic Scouter Awards
    Suggested Presentation of Masonic Scouter Awards Masonic Official: Freemasonry is based on service, and the exemplification of moral truth, which is essential for good role models. The Grand Lodge of Pennsylvania, in cooperation with the Boy Scouts of America, created the Daniel Carter Beard Masonic Scouter Award as a national award program for Masons who exemplify the Scout Law and Masonic Virtues, in service to the Scouting Program. Masonic Official: In the late 1800’s, Daniel Carter Beard created a program called the “Boy Pioneers” that inspired Lord Robert Baden-Powell to create the Boy Scouts in England. The Boy Scout program came to the United States in 1910 when Dan Beard merged his organization into the Boy Scouts of America and became its first National Commissioner. A Master Mason in New York, Brother Dan Beard stands as a fine example of how a Mason can live a life of Masonic Service to mankind, by reaching out and working with youth in the local community. Masonic Official: The award consists of a Masonic medallion suspended from a blue and silver neck ribbon, which can be worn at any Masonic or Scout gathering, a certificate, and a traditional Scouting knot patch authorized by the Boy Scouts of America as the “Community Organization Award,” to be worn by Scouters above the left shirt pocket of the uniform. Masonic Official: Today, this presentation of the Daniel Carter Beard Masonic Scouter Award is being made to the following deserving (brother/brethren) who (was/were) nominated by (his/their) Lodge, approved by the local Scout Executive, and authorized by the Grand Lodge.

  • 100 Facts About Scouting
    100 Facts About Scouting 1. Neil Armstrong, the first man to walk on the moon, is an Eagle Scout. When he said, “The Eagle has landed,” he wasn’t kidding. In 1969, Armstrong became the first Eagle Scout to be portrayed on a U.S. postage stamp - called “The Man on the Moon.” 2. The original Invention merit badge (1911-1918) required the candidate to obtain a patent. 3. In 1911, 18-year-old Scout, Joseph Lane started Boys’ Life magazine, which goes to 1.1 million Scouts each month. A year later, the Boy Scouts of America bought the magazine for $6,100 - about $1 per subscriber. 4. James E. West was the BSA’s first Chief Scout Executive. When he took the position in 1911, he agreed to serve six months. At his retirement in 1943, he was given the title of Chief Scout. 5. The BSA is the second-largest Scouting organization in the world. The largest is in Indonesia. 6. One of Scouting’s most popular traditions, patch trading, has bloomed into a full-fledged hobby. Some rare patches are worth thousands of dollars. 7. For all but two years from 1925 to 1976, illustrator Norman Rockwell illustrated the annual Brown & Bigelow Boy Scout calendar for free. 8. Former Congressmen Alan Simpson and Norman Mineta served together from the mid-1970s to the late 1990s. They met as Boy Scouts during World War II, when Simpson’s troop from Cody, Wyoming, visited the internment camp where Mineta and his Japanese immigrant parents were being held. The two became - and have remained - close friends and political allies.

  • Executive Edition
    Vol. 7, No. 8 EXECUTIVE EDITION In this Issue: • The First Chief Scout • Eleven More Chiefs • BSA’S New Chief Scout • A Profession With a Purpose • Scouting’s Future Ever wonder who runs the Boy Scouts of America? A national committee made up of volunteers from many backgrounds guide the organization through its most important decisions. They are led by Scouting’s National Key 3. The top professional Scouter in the organization is the Chief Scout Executive. He is selected by BSA’s National Executive Committee to oversee the national office and all that happens in the field. Throughout BSA’s history, a dozen men have held the post, each bringing his own style and vision to the office. Soon there will be one more. THE FIRST CHIEF SCOUT In 1910 as the new Boy Scouts of America was taking shape, Ernest Thompson Seton, Daniel Carter Beard, and other visionaries were developing program and writing literature. Support from Theodore Roosevelt and others was bringing positive attention to the fledgling organization. With volunteers and staff ready to move forward, Scouting needed a strong administrator. They found that in James E. West. Orphaned at a young age and handicapped by tuberculosis, West had nonetheless had the inner strength to make his own way. He earned a law degree and become a strong proponent of children’s rights. President Roosevelt recommended West to the Boy Scouts. The two had worked together on youth issues when Roosevelt was in the White House. West had also gained experience with the YMCA and other groups. Hired on a six-month trial basis, Dr.

  • Scouting Heritage Merit Badge Workbook This Workbook Can Help You but You Still Need to Read the Merit Badge Pamphlet
    Scouting Heritage Merit Badge Workbook This workbook can help you but you still need to read the merit badge pamphlet. This Workbook can help you organize your thoughts as you prepare to meet with your merit badge counselor. You still must satisfy your counselor that you can demonstrate each skill and have learned the information. You should use the work space provided for each requirement to keep track of which requirements have been completed, and to make notes for discussing the item with your counselor, not for providing full and complete answers. If a requirement says that you must take an action using words such as "discuss", "show", "tell", "explain", "demonstrate", "identify", etc, that is what you must do. Merit Badge Counselors may not require the use of this or any similar workbooks. No one may add or subtract from the official requirements found in Scouts BSA Requirements (Pub. 33216).

  • A Chronology of Sea Scouting in the United States
    A Chronology of Sea Scouting in the United States (Beginning with mention of Sea Scouting’s origins in England as a necessary prelude) This present document, “A Chronology of Sea Scouting in the United States”, is based in substantial part on an earlier document, Chronology of Sea Scouting in the United States, part of the U.S. Scouting Service Project website at http://clipart.usscouts.org/ScoutDoc/SeaExplr/chronolo.rtf. Bruce Chr. Johnson, now National Sea Scout Committeeman and Northeast Region Commodore, prepared that original chronology for the Sea Scout history exhibit at the 1993 National Boy Scout Jamboree. It was prepared for background; not as a finished product. His original document contained entries through August 1989. With Commodore Johnson’s permission, I have reformatted his original document, added what appear to me to be significant Sea Scouting milestones from 1989 forward, and added earlier historical entries when and as they became known to me. The result is this present work, “A Chronology of Sea Scouting in the United States.” If an entry below is based on a date on or before August 1989, it is from Commodore Johnson’s original document, unless otherwise footnoted. Footnotes and subsequent entries have been made by me. If I have made an error somewhere, I trust it will be viewed as a human error and forgiven as such. I have tried to be thorough in my acknowledgment of sources and disclaimer at the end of this document. The sources listed at the end of this document are a great place to look for additional information on the history of Sea Scouting in the United States and Great Britain, and I encourage you to consult them.
