If you have already completed a nomination card and submitted this to the County Secretary, you are not required to do anything further. If you haven't, please complete and return the nomination card which is available from all Badge Secretaries and Scout Shops in GLNE asap. Invitations will be sent out to all nominees.

Chief Scout Awards - Notification of Award to County

With Beaver Scouts, Cub Scouts, Scouts and Explorer Scouts now all eligible to gain the Chief Scout Award, we have a system of notifying County of individual achievement of this badge.

The procedure will be that when a member gains this award, the District will be responsible for presenting the badge to the member. At the time of completing the award, the relevant section leader should complete a postcard, which can be obtained from your local badge supplier / Local Scout Shop. Once completed, this card should be sent to the County Secretary in the envelope provided with the card. The information provided will enable County to keep a central record of members who have achieved the award and will be invited to a special presentation event at a later date. Details of presentations will be advertised later this year and members will receive personal invitations.
