Appalachian District News

Life to Eagle

Monthly Life to Eagle packet reviews are going to be held the second Tuesday of each month at 7:30 pm at Muhlenberg High School. These conferences are for scouts who recently made Life rank and are preparing to earn the rank of Eagle. The conference reviews the contents of the Life to Eagle Packet and gives a step-by-step description of the process of going from Life to Eagle. It is imperative that Scouts attend the conference and do not download Life to Eagle Packets off the Internet. If you have any questions contact James Kohler at 610-562-5140.

Appalachian District Events

Centennial Unit Awards

Please make sure you review your Centennial Unit Award forms and that you are striving to reach the goals that you set for your unit.

In the near future, you will be contacted by your unit commissioner, ADC or District Commissioner to review your goals.

Cub Scout and Boy Scout Roundtables

Appalachian District holds a monthly roundtable meeting for adult volunteers (except June and July). The roundtables are held the second Tuesday of each month and are held at Muhlenberg High School. Each unit should send someone to the Roundtable to learn new program ideas, pick up information packets and to share thoughts with other units.

Membership- It is always time to sell the Adventure

This year’s school recruitment went well throughout most of the district. The unit leaders and commissioners deserve a big thank you for doing a great job. The recruitment effort does not stop with school night. Adults should talk to friends with children of scouting age. Talk about scouting at church, social groups and work. Make your love of Scouting known. Encourage your scouts to invite friends to join. There is a lot of competition for children’s time and if we don’t sell it year round a lot of boys will miss the chance to belong to one of the best youth organizations available. The truth is, it can take up to six invitations before a boy will join. Don’t give up the challenge, the results are worth it. Recruit that Boy Today!!
