Scout volunteers needed: Emcees for Sep Court of Honor

Posted on Aug 26 2025 - 7:58pm

Scouts:  We need two volunteers to serve as emcees for the Sep 28 Court of Honor.  Emcees organize the agenda, recruit other scouts to present, and host the live event.  These are requirements for Communications merit badge.  If you have not served as emcee before or need Communications MB, please consider volunteering.  You'll work with Mr Audette and Mrs Cornell to get everything organized in the week or two before the event.
