Scouters Annual Conference - Registration is Open
The Scouter's Annual Conference (SAC) with a theme of 2020 Vision for Scouting! will be held the weekend of November 13th at the Edelweiss Resort & Lodge in Garmisch Germany. Scouters from all over the Council will gather for fellowship, training, and recognition. A full weekend of training courses and topics pertinent to our leaders to help deliver better programing to our Scouts. Planned topics include Cub Scouts and Scouts BSA Leader Training, Trainer's EDGE (special Friday class), Cub Scout Shooting Sports, BALOO, Introduction to Outdoor Leader Skills (IOLS), Safety Afloat, Scoutbook Tips & Tricks, STEM, and other classes. On Saturday night we will celebrate the 70th Anniversary of the founding of the Transatlantic Council and will also present the 2020 class of Silver Beaver Award recipients. This recognition is the highest award a council can bestow upon a volunteer for their service to Scouting. This year we will salute Ray Eden, Jennifer Guth, Richard Newton, and Kreg Schnell.
SAC is not just for Scout leaders- families are invited to the weekend as  well! Families can use the facilities such as Just for Kids and Kids Night Out or they can visit the Garmisch area. Non-DOD ID card holders are welcome to attend SAC.
The fee for the Scouters Annual Conference is $60.00 per person. Event Staff is $40. This includes a ticket to attend Saturday's Silver Beaver Dinner. Additional dinner tickets can be purchased for $35 per person.
Lodging is not part of the event fee. Want a room at the Edelweiss Lodge for SAC? TAC has reserved a block of rooms under a special code and price but that offer expires on October 12th. After that date, any remaining rooms are released back to the public and you may have to find your own lodging offsite.
