Celebrate Your Success!
You and your Scouter buddies worked hard over the last year to deliver a great program to your Cubs, Scouts, Venturers, and Explorers. We think you deserve a thank you, so we’re hosting the Sons of Liberty District Recognition Event & Annual Meeting on Monday, April 24, from 7 to 9 p.m. at the First Baptist Church of Arlington, 819 Massachusetts Ave., Arlington, Mass.
What’s next? Two things:
1) Save the date. Online registration will be available soon to purchase tickets at a modest price to offset food costs.
2) Nominate your buddy for the recognition they deserve!
There are many categories of recognition, but we won’t know who deserves what award if you don’t tell us. Review the awards below and submit nominations by MARCH 17 to District Chairman Steve Sookikian, scouter248@gmail.com.
