  • The Training Times Fall 2019
    The Training Times Fall 2019 NEW! District Committee Basic Training District committee training has been taught the same way for many years with a very dated course. By leveraging the BSA Learn Center, we can give the district committee a learning environment that provides them the content they need when they need it, and we can leverage professional training for consistency in district training. This new learning replaces the District Committee Workshop and will provide learning plans aligned with the various district committee positions and functions. Position-trained status (D61, D62, D75) will be provided for those who complete their training. Position training includes: District Committee Chair Activities and Civic Service Chair District Committee Vice Chair Nominating Chair Membership Chair Program Chair Fund Development Camping and Outdoor Chair Training Chair Advancement Chair Member at Large As the online training supersedes the District Committee Workshop, use of the District Committee Workshop syllabus for training should be discontinued. Facebook Are you on Facebook? If so, have you found the BSA volunteer training page? We have 14,000+ “Follows” and more than 13,800 “Likes,” and the number is growing every day.

As members of the Order of the Arrow, it is our job, responsibility, and pleasure to help promote camping and outdoor activities. Maybe, because of our efforts we can make your position with scouting a tad bit easier. With the information enclosed upon the following pages you'll be better able to set up and participate in much worthwhile camping experience for Men and Women of all ages alike. The formulating of this booklet has truly been a major undertaking. We would not be able to create this book if it hadn’t been for the help that was provided by Kiondoga Lodge 422 of the Buffalo Trace Council. With their own Where to Go Camping Book we were able to use the extensive research they had done and present it in a way for our own local council. Within the following pages are several bits of information. Please look through them to help you make a more meaningful camping experience for your Boy Scout Troop. Takachsin Lodge is happy to be able to bring you this work. This work had been undertaken by the Technology Committee of Lodge. If you have any corrections that you find in the book please contact a member of Takachsin Lodge and let them know.

  • Roget's Thesaurus of English Words and Phrases
    Roget's Thesaurus of English Words and Phrases By Roget, Peter Mark English A Doctrine Publishing Corporation Digital Book 493 This book is indexed by ISYS Web Indexing system to allow the reader find any word or number within the document. AND PHRASES*** These files were assembled by L. John Old, Napier University, Edinburgh, #22). ROGET'S THESAURUS OF ENGLISH WORDS AND PHRASES Notes on the automatically-generated Index to Roget's Thesaurus, 1911 edition. Introduction A true Roget's Thesaurus (as opposed to an alphabetically-listed synonym dictionary) is composed of three parts: - a hierarchical classification structure (hierarchy or "Synopsis of Categories"); - a body, which lists the Categories (whose titles are sometimes referred to as "head words" or "headings"), under which are found the groups of semantically- or conceptually-related words and phrases (also called synonyms or entries); - and an Index that lists the entries alphabetically (along with the Category titles and numbers under which the entry may be found in the body). This document contains the complete Index to the 1911 (American) edition. It was generated from the entries (synonyms, phrases and word lists) contained in the Gutenburg/MICRA free E- text thesaurus 14a (plain text version). It is larger than the original 1911 Roget's Thesaurus Index, containing all text entries (i.e. excluding numbers, special characters and parenthetical information) up to 25 characters long (91,000+ entries). Index Entries This Index lacks the intelligence found in the original hand-edited Index, where common-sense aggregations occur. For example A B C and A.B.C. are found under a single Index entry in the original Index.
