scoutldr 732 Posted February 18, 2004 Share Posted February 18, 2004 This thread was spun from another thread.Also from Mike Walton's site: "Some local Councils have also informed their volunteers INCORRECTLY that "the BSA is no longer issuing out medals and plaques and the only thing they are giving out is the square knot and the certificate". This is UNTRUE, says the BSA's Council Support Division's Director. If your Council has stated something like this, the BSA's Council Support Division would like to know; they have estimated that there is ONE Scouters' Training Award medal in storage for EVERY REGISTERED VOLUNTEER SCOUTER and there are similar stockpiles of those other award medals and plaques. All the Council has to do is pay for it. Some Councils may have you to pay for your own award, which may be "tacky" but it is one way of the Council cutting costs. The address for the BSA's Council Support Division is: Council Support Division, SUM 108 National Office, Boy Scouts of America 1325 West Walnut Hill Lane Irving, Texas 75061-2079" Link to post Share on other sites
