Commissioner’s College
6/27/16
Hello
Scouters, recently, a group of scouters from the Daniel Boone Council attended
an area commissioner’s college with 8 other councils from the southeast. It was
held in Black Mountain at the Ridgecrest convention center. We had a great
turnout of 15, comprised of both current commissioners and non-commissioners.
The college
is a great way for new and experienced commissioners, as well as scouters who
are curious about what a commissioner’s role is, to learn relevant skills for
any adult scouter working with a pack, troop, or crew. Topics such as
recruiting, counseling, unit finances and unit re-charter were taught by
experienced scouters who have many years of scouting experience in various
leadership roles.
Consider
joining us next year for either a day or the whole weekend. It provides an opportunity to learn new
leadership skills as well as network. The next commissioner’s college will be in
early June 2017. We will be advertising in the long rifle as the date gets
closer. Additionally, we will have some training for new commissioners at the
next university of scouting.
If you know of someone in the Daniel Boone council who
would make a good commissioner please email me at my address below. Each of our
districts is in need of scouters who would like to stay connected with scouting
and would like to work with units to help them succeed.
Yours
in Scouting,
Thomas Kuster | Council Commissioner
