The Unit Scouter Award is an honor bestowed on a registered adult volunteer Scouter who has made a distinguished impact on youth members through outstanding service given at the unit level.
The award is presented annually by the Lake Erie Council in the same manner as the Division Award of Merit and the Silver Beaver Award. What distinguishes it from other bestowed honors is that recipients are recognized for service to Cub Scout packs, Scouts BSA troops, Venturing Crews, or Sea Scout ships.
Nominees must be adult volunteer Scouters who render noteworthy service to youth members in Scouting through a traditional unit. The nature and value of such service may consist of sustained results delivered over a long period of time or a single project, plan or decision impacting many youths over a shorter time.
Nomination forms are due by December 15, 2019.
