Let me introduce to you your District committee, their role, and their contact information.
I would also like to add that if you have put in your time with a unit, and are looking to stay in Scouts, but need a change in scenery, then maybe a committee position would be something you would be interested in. We meet the fourth Tuesday of every month in Rutland. Send me a note (rusbaker@gmavt.net) if you are interested. We would love to increase the size of our committee and help to improve even more the serve we provide to our District.
Thank you ,
Russ Baker
