A Message from The Office of the Scout Executive

11/13/2020

 
A Scout is Obedient and today I am writing to provide clarification pertaining to today's announcement by the Scott Administration ordering increased social-distancing measures in an effort to stem the acceleration of the COVID-19 pandemic in Vermont. 

Please take a moment to read and familiarize yourself with Addendum 8 to Amended and Restated Executive Order No. 01-20. The Council Key 3 and Risk Management Committee has reviewed this order and it is clear that we must suspend all in-person Scouting activities until these restrictions are eased. 

In addition to other measures, this order calls for:

a. Multiple Household Social Gatherings Suspended. Attendance at all public and private social, recreational and entertainment gatherings, indoor and outdoor, including large social gatherings incidental to ceremonies, holiday gatherings, parties and celebrations, shall be limited to participation with only members of a single household. For the sake of clarity, nothing in this Order prohibits the gathering of members living in the same residence. Individuals who live alone may gather with members of their immediate family residing in a different household.

g. Recreational Sports. All recreational sports programs, including organized and/or informal recreational youth and adult league sports, practices, games and tournaments, are hereby suspended. This suspension shall not apply to school-sponsored sports activities which are subject to applicable Agency of Education Guidance.

The Council Leadership and I appreciate that these restrictions will once again force us to flex our collective creative muscle. To adapt and to once again demonstrate Scouting's resilience to help ground our families and sustain our community. 

Thank you for always prioritizing the safety of our young people and their families. 

Gratefully Yours in Scouting,

Mark Saxon
Scout Executive & CEO
