BELOW YOU WILL FIND INFORMATION ABOUT THE DISTRICT COMMITTEE & THE ANNUAL MEETING

What is the District Committee?

A district committee is responsible for increasing the effectiveness of Scouting throughout a district through the achievement of district goals. Thus, the task of the district nominating committee selecting a slate of competent officers and members at large for the next year is an extremely important one.

Information & Process for the Annual District Committee Meeting:

Purpose of the District Annual Meeting

To elect district officers and district members at large.

Those eligible to vote:

1. Chartered organization representatives registered and currently representing chartered organizations within the district’s geographical boundaries. (See more information below)
2. Registered district members at large duly elected at the last annual district committee meeting or during the interim at a regular, duly called district committee meeting.
3. Registered council members at large residing in the district.

Charter Organization Representative

The chartered organization representative is automatically a voting member of the council and the district upon the selection or appointment by the community organization and when registered as a member of the Boy Scouts of America. The individual is to be registered during the time that the chartered organization designates this person as chartered organization representative and shall have one vote. A chartered organization may only have one representative.

District Committee Members at Large Suggestion Procedure

Suggestions may be made in writing to the nominating committee for inclusion in its report providing the nominees thus entered are received by the nominating committee at least two weeks prior to the district annual meeting. If accepted by the nominating committee, the candidate will be contacted by the nominating committee and permission received from the person to stand for election and to serve.
