Three Rivers District Award of Merit Recipients

The District Award of Merit is awarded by a District to Scouters who render service of an outstanding nature to youth in the District. Normally, the award is presented for service to youth in excess of five years. The award is made available annually on the basis of 1 for each 25 traditional units or fraction thereof. The district need not present all the awards to which it is entitled each year. It is not appropriate to nominate a Scouter who has already received this award, however a Scouter may receive more than one District Award  of Merit from different Councils.Candidates for this award must be nominated. Self-nomination disqualifies the candidate.

Requirements:
  • A nominee must be a registered Scouter.
  • A nominee must have rendered noteworthy service to youth in Scouting, outside of Scouting, or both. 
Note: The nature and value of "noteworthy service to youth" may consist of a single plan or decisions that contributed vitally to the lives of large numbers of youth or it may have been given to a small group over an extended period of time.Consideration must be given to the nominee's Scouting position and the corresponding opportunity to render outstanding service beyond the expectations of that Scouting position.

The nominee's attitude toward and cooperation with the district, division, and/or council is to be taken into consideration.
