District Commissioner Staff District Commissioners – Wes Forgey/Bill Walsh Assistant District Commissioners Sherrill Edwards, Mike Henderson, Paul Krane, Ron Stankye, Julie Pond Roundtable Commissioner – Eric Pond Cub Scout Roundtable Commissioner – Vernon White Boy Scout Roundtable Commissioner – Cara Curtland Venturing Roundtable Commissioner – Nathan Morrow/Julie Parkes Assistant District & Unit Commissioners Michael Anderson, Rebecca Bell, Lori Fanning, Rick Feese, Ken Fielding, Jennifer Hale, John Houston, Carol Kreiter, Vernon Johnson, Douglas Lacher, David Lenz, Goran Martinson, Lynda Meza, Kristyn Morgan, Julie Parkes, Ann Powers, Douglas Priebe, Mike Riley, Debra Russell, Russell Scofield, Vaughn Teuscher, Jennifer Thompson, Russ Bradseth Senior District Executive – Eric Martinez & Tim Williams Stay Informed – Attend Roundtable! What is Roundtable? • Open forum for scouters to exchange ideas. • Cub Scout, Boy Scout, Venturing and Varsity Leaders meet together as groups to discuss relevant issues in their packs, troops, crews and teams. • Open exchange of ideas with an experienced scouter facilitating for each group to review information and share their ideas. • Handouts are available at roundtable on a wide range of program ideas and upcoming activities and events in the district and council. • The Cub Scout session: A variety of craft ideas that are inexpensive and entertaining for the Cub Scouts. • Opportunity to get different ideas and feedback to take back and apply to your units to improve unit or solve problems. • District: Council: At Roundtable there is an opportunity to have access to council information and assistance. Also this is the perfect opportunity for units to have input on district and council events. There’s an updated Annual Health and Medical Record to use for 2020 • Part A is an informed consent, release agreement and authorization that needs to be signed by every participant (or a parent and/or legal guardian for all youth under 18). • Part B is general information and a health history. • Part C is your pre-participation physical exam completed by a certified and licensed health care provider. • For all Scouting events: Part A and B. Give the completed forms to your unit leader. This applies to all participants for all activities, day camps, local tours and weekend camping trips less than 72 hours. • For events or camps: Part A, B and C. A pre-participation physical is needed for resident, tour, or trek camps or for a Scouting event of more than 72 hours, such as Wood Badge and NYLT. The exam needs to be completed by a certified and licensed physician (M.D. or D.O.), nurse practitioner or physician assistant. If your camp has provided you with any supplemental risk information, or if your plans include attending one of the four national high- adventure bases, share the venue’s risk advisory with your medical provider when you are having your physical exam. • For high-adventure trips: Part A, B and C. Plus, each of the four national high-adventure bases (Florida Sea Base, Northern Tier, Philmont and the Summit Bechtel Reserve) has provided a supplemental risk advisory that explains in greater detail some of the risks inherent in that program. Please review these as some Scouts or leaders may not be physically or mentally able to handle the trek. Others arrive at a high-adventure base without discussing that base’s risk factors with their health care provider, meaning they have missing info at check-in that can slow down the process.

  • 3Rd Epsom Scout Group Official History
    3rd Epsom (St. Martin’s) Scout Group History 3rd Epsom Scout Group Official History Version 8 Compiled 2018 This history has been compiled from such records such as St. Martin's Church magazine, minutes of Group committees, AGMs, log books and the history of Epsom and Ewell District. Many thanks are owed to David Faulkner who has compiled the majority of the history up to 1992 together with other people associated with the Scout Group, particularly the Collins family, Leslie and Edith Clark, Michael Arthur, Shirley Quemby (nee Moore) and Richard Ascough. We hope you enjoy reading this history and feel that you then know a bit more about the Group as the longest continuous registered Group in Epsom and Ewell. Inevitably there will be omissions and errors, therefore if anyone has any additions or corrections, however small, they would be very much appreciated. Richard Ascough Group Scout Leader Version 8 Page 1 3rd Epsom (St. Martin’s) Scout Group History The 1990's This new decade started with so much happening that it is difficult to know where to begin. The programme of the refurbishment and modernisation of the HQ was now in hand and work had already started. The total cost was estimated at £24,000 and towards this the HQ Committee had "saved" about £5,000 (mainly because fundraising had continued very profitably but little work had been carried out while the lease was negotiated); and the Church had generously donated £3,000. Another benefactor now appeared in the Mayor of Epsom & Ewell, Councillor Robert Lewis who although he had no positive connection with the Group (other than that the Mayor's Secretary, Maureen Chartres, was a former parent) adopted St.

  • Spring 2021 Scout Recruitment Guide
    Spring 2021 Scout Recruitment Guide The spring is the best time to recruit new Scouts to join a Troop! The highlight for many Scouts is their experience at Summer Camp. It is also the small window to recruit 5th graders. Maybe your troop has not been successful in this effort before? This year is unique in that many youths did not get the opportunity as 5th graders to join pack or they left Cub Scouts because they were not active in 2020. Troops Need to “Be Prepared” for New Scouts Troops with an excellent track record of recruiting and retaining members have one thing in common – they are prepared to receive new Scouts into their program. What does this mean? A Troop is prepared to receive new members when the leaders have: ✓ Have an activities calendar for this summer with input from youth and families. Share this to with your district executive so they can better support you. ✓ Created a reasonable unit budget and are good at explaining how much Scouting costs and how the parents can help pay for the program. Including large events like summer camp. ✓ Spring is a great time to get a new patrol started with a few families and recent youth transferring from a pack. Develop these families into the leaders of the troop in the future. ✓ Evaluate your Troop’s leadership succession plan to determine the leadership positions that need to be filled and have a game plan for recruiting parents to fill those vacancies. ✓ Identify current troop leaders that will serve as immediate new-member mentor(s).
