I don\u2019t have much to say today\u2026 But be<\/a>fore I end my day I have to say THANK YOU to some folks.  Today I was awarded the BSA District Award of Merit.  This is the highest honor  that a district can bestow on one of its volunteer Scouters, and our District can only award two annually.  <\/p>\n

There are no \u201crequirements\u201d for this award, quite simply you are \u201csecretly\u201d nominated and an awards board reviews that nomination and the decides whether you are \u201cworthy\u201d.<\/p>\n

So, THANK YOU to whomever put together the nomination package and turned it in to the powers that be, and THANK YOU to the District Board members who (oddly enough) decided my actions over the last year merited this award.<\/p>\n

Lastly, I would be remise if I did not congratulate my good friend Will Bishop as well as the other recipient of this award this year.  You truly deserve this honor.<\/p>\n
