| Would you like a free weekend of tent camping or $25 off a cabin rental at FSR? Introducing the Roundtable Attendance Incentive Program. Each unit will get an entry for every Leader or Scout that attends RT each month. One entry per person per month applied to BS RT or CS RT drawing. Winning entries will be drawn twice each year for BS Troops & CS Packs. Odds of winning will be based on each unit’s attendance participation at RT. This program is not valid with OA Chapter meeting attendance unless those Scouts or Leaders are attending a RT split session. This is about increasing our RT participation and sharing info with more leaders in each unit. This is not about filling out an entry and leaving. We are all Scouts and Scouters. Please don’t abuse the system. All HOOC camping and reservation procedures must be followed. The first period will be September – December with the drawing in January. The second period will be January – May with the drawing in May. |
| A Year of Celebration Program participants will earn recognition for making a difference in their communities due to their dedication to five of Scouting's core values: Leadership, Character, Community Service, Achievement, and the Outdoors. Through that commitment, participants can earn each of five award ribbons to display from our 100th Anniversary commemorative patch. A Year of Celebration will take place from September 1, 2009 through December 31, 2010. The Program is open to all Cub Scouts, Boy Scouts, Venturers, adult leaders, and Scouting alumni.
