Mr. Weekes serves as Chairman and CEO of Weekes Forest Products in St. Paul, Minnesota. During his tenure, Mr. Weekes accomplished a lengthy listing of accomplishments and success. Some of these highlights include: The Central Region was a Quality Centennial Region in 2007 and 2008. The Region turned around a six year negative membership trend and achieved total growth in 2007. The number of Quality Centennial Councils increased from 21 in 2006 to 56 in 2008. The Central Region developed a dynamic, council service focused strategic plan that is producing a number of contemporary support tactics for local councils. Venturing membership led the country in 2007 and 2008. The number of councils with deficits shrank from 26 in 2006 to 14 in 2008. The regional board, advisory board and area committees were redesigned with an emphasis on leveraging member support for councils. Support Tactics and Tools delivered include: Operational Planning; Budget Development; President Orientation; Commissioner Orientation; Treasurer Orientation; National Park Service Partnership; New Unit Blitz Events in every council for two consecutive years among several items. From the entire core of volunteer leaders and professional staff, our thanks and deepest appreciation goes to Steve and Monica Weekes. The Central Region Nominating Committee will present for consideration at our Regional Luncheon, Mr. Stephen King for Regional President. Mr. King is the founder of King Investments and would bring a tremendous amount of business, Scouting and leadership experience to this role.

That is what a NOAC is all about.

    The Official Newsletter of the Northeast Iowa Council www.scoutsiowa.org January 2018 | Vol. 16 | Issue 1 Northeast Iowa Council | Boy Scouts of America WELCOME from your Scout Executive CONTENTS Happy 2018. 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.

Short, a Field Representative of the National Boy Scout Council, to assist them in organizing and establishing a charter for a Waterloo Boy Scout Council. Prominent among the men interested in this movement were George W. Wood, George W. Pike, John W. Gwynne, H. G. Northey, C. F. Alstadt, J. W. Rath, W. F. Parrott, E. R. Shoemaker, R. L. Hoxie, John Hansen, Rank Benedict, and Edmond Rausch. Following the organization of the council, Mr. Short was employed as the first Scout Executive in the area. Neighboring cities and towns, seeing the advantages of organized Scouting, soon became interested, and the council rapidly expanded to other communities of northeastern Iowa. Among leaders in these other communities who became active in the movement were Dr. W. A. Rolfh of Waverly (who gave the funding for the Health Lodge in 1953), Walter Voorhees of Cedar Falls, Rev.

We promote camping and the outdoor experience. We are a regular part of the BSA's camping program. We participate at both the Troop and Council levels. We are guided by the principles of Cheerful Service. This guide is an example of that cheerful service. Purpose of the Order of the Arrow 1. To recognize the campers - Scouts and Scouters - who best exemplify the Scout Oath and Law in their daily lives and by such recognition, cause other campers to conduct themselves in such manner to warrant recognition. 2. To develop and maintain camping traditions and spirit. 3. To promote scout camping, which reaches its greatest effectiveness as part of the Unit? Camping program, to help the District and Council camping program both year around and in the Summer Camp, as directed by the Camping Committee and the Council. 4. To crystalize the Scout habit of helpfulness into a life purpose of leadership in cheerful service to others. History Dr. E. Urner Goodman and Carroll A. Edson founded the Order of the Arrow in 1915 at the Treasure Island Camp of the Philadelphia Council, Boy Scouts of America. It became an official program experiment in 1922 and was approved as part of the Scouting program in 1934. In 1948, the Order of the arrow, recognized as the Boy Scouts of America's national brotherhood of honored campers, became an official part of the camping program of the Boy Scouts of America.
