Re: Oldest/Longest Serving Cubmaster???

Rob,

With regard to your Cubmaster with 46 years tenure in Cub Scout (now 65
years old), you may well have one of the longest serving Cubmasters,
though others may be in the same range. My suggestion would be for you
personally to right to the registration division at National with a copy
to their Public Relations folks suggesting that you intend to issue a
press release to local media describing this wonderful man's 46 years of
continued service to Scouting, that you also intend to note that to
the best of your knowledge he has the record for the longest continuous
service as a Cubmaster, and that you plan to make the release on a
specified date unless your facts are in error. Give them a reasonable
length of time to respond and in the meantime write a press release. If
they don't object, go for it and see if you can't get a local paper to do
a story. This is newsworthy. Don't wait for the fiftieth year,
recognize the accomplishment now.
