| Jr. Leader Training |
Updated on March 21st, 2011 |
We've made the date shift for District JLT to May 7th at 1st Presbyterian Church in Wheaton. Course will run roughly 9 to 4p.m. The OA is hosting and you should be getting info from the Chapter Chief, Brian Payne shortly. We'll have an SM mtg sometime 1st week of April to slot in who would like to teach which sessions. We'll also be offering adult CPR by an AHA certified instructor, 4 hrs, $25.00/each. Check w/ your adults as we need this for some tour permits. I think this course will be a great thing for our scouts! Thanks for your support! Contact me w/ questions, comments, ideas...

| Chanonee District's Feather in the Cap Award |

Chanonee District's Feather in the Cap Award
What is the Feather in the Cap Award?
This award is designed for the one individual in your unit that just goes above and beyond the call of his/her volunteer responsibilities.
How does one get nominated for this award?
The selection process for your unit should be designed and implemented by your unit's committee. A suggested committee maybe one committee member, one uniformed leader, and one parent.
Once the individual has been selected, it is the responsibility of the committee chair to fill out the Feather in the Cap recipient form. When completed, please turn it in to Pat Kronenwetter-District Chairman or Luke Jones-District Commissioner.
Please Note: The recipient does not have to be a registered leader.
Once this form has been received, the selected individuals will get a personal invitation to attend the Chanonee Celebration whereby he/she will receive their award of appreciation. It's that simple! What a fun way to recognize your volunteers! It would be nice if your unit also made an effort to attend the Celebration to support your choice of recipient.
This year's Celebration will be on April 14, 2011 at St. John the Baptist Church, 0S233 Church Street, Winfield, IL.
The deadline for all recipient forms to be turned in is April 6, 2011. This will allow enough time for invitations to go out and awards to be prepared.

| Cub Leader Specific Training 'On-Line' |
Updated on September 9th, 2010 |
| Cub Scout position specific training is now being offered online at www.myscouting.org. While your training staff still prefers to you do your training 'face to face,' it is not always possible to do so. So, for those people that can't find the time to go to classes, this is an alternative. There is now absolutely no excuse not be trained. Training offered is Tiger Den Leader, Wolf Den Leader, Bear Den Leader, Webelos Den Leader, Cub master, Committee, and Pack Training in separate modules. Contact your District Training Team for additional information. |
| Youth Protection Training |
Updated on July 10th, 2010 |
| Effective immediately, any adult leader having direct contact with the Scouts MUST complete Youth Protection training. If the adult leader has not received Youth Protection training within the last two years, they will not be allowed to continue serving as a leader and will not be re-registered. Further, depending on which leaders have not taken the training, the unit may not be rechartered. After January 1, 2011, all adults coming into contract with the Scouts will have to have completed Youth Protection training. This training is available on-line at www.myscouting.org. If you are not a member, you must register. There is no cost to do so. Additional information is available on the Council website www.threefirescouncil.org. Units can still have one of the District trainers do the training should you want to have your entire committee complete the training at the same time. Should you have any questions, or wish to set up a unit training session, please contact the District Training Chair for additional information. |
| District Commitee Meetings |
Updated on September 9th, 2009 |
Did you know that your unit's Chartering Organization Representative is a member of the District Committee and should attend each meeting? Would you like to get a better idea of what's going on at the District level? Do you have a question you would like to get answered by the people making the decisions? Do you have an issue that needs to be addressed? Do you want to be one of the people in the know? Then plan to attend the District Committee Meetings.
The meetings are open to anyone who wants to attend, and visitors are always welcome. In fact, your attendance, and participation, is encouraged. Meetings are always held on the first Thursday of the month (except July or when it falls on a holiday) at Hope Presbyterian Church in Wheaton, and start promptly at 7:30 PM. They are always over by 9 PM. We look forward to having you attend.
Questions concerning the agenda for an upcoming meeting, or suggestions for agenda items you would like to see addressed, should be directed to the District Chairman. |
