Introducing Pam Miscikowski, Our New HOVC Office Manager
We are thrilled to announce that we have hired Pamela “Pam” Miscikowski to become the new HOVC office manager starting July 18, 2022. Pam will work with Jim Ewan as we transition towards his official retirement in August.
We are excited to have Pam join the Heart of Virginia Council team and hope you’ll visit the Leadership Center soon to welcome her into her new role.
By participating in the popcorn and peanut sale, Scouts gain self-confidence, people skills, money management, salesmanship, and business ethics - things that help prepare them for life! The council does all the pre-work to set up the sale, eliminating the need for your unit to research opportunities, create promotional materials, manage a vendor relationship, etc. Your Scouts can help fund Scouting adventures like summer camp and beyond... and earn some great prizes, too! Pop on over to the link below and sign-up for the sale - you'd be nuts not to!

It's hard to believe we're halfway through July, but it has us wondering... are you on target to earn the Summertime Pack Award? If you're looking for a great event for July, consider ⚾Scout Night at the Diamond on the 29th! We've pulled together an awesome Summertime Pack Award event tracker and a short survey to see who is on track and what fun events they've hosted.
The HOVC Advancement Committee is pleased to offer two new sessions for those selected by their units to be Citizenship in Society Merit Badge Counselors.

Both sessions are free and will take place at the HOVC Leadership Center, beginning promptly at 2pm and running for approximately 90 minutes. Each session is capped at 20 participants, so don't wait!
