District Award of Merit

The District Award of Merit is a council award presented by Districts in the same manner that the Silver Beaver is a national award presented by councils. The “DAM” award is the top award presented by Districts to Volunteers who render service of an outstanding nature at the District level.  The recipient must be nominated for the award by another Scouter, and vetted by the District Key 3. Our District is only allowed to appoint 2 of these awards per year. Any attempt at self-nomination will disqualify a candidate.

Unit Leader Award of Merit

Awarded to a Cubmaster, Scoutmaster, Advisor or Skipper.  This award must be nominated by the Unit Committee Chair.
