The answer is YES. The Council does issue certificates for Eagle projects, if requested. They will put the same clause on those certificates that they do for every other Scouting event that isn't a recruitment: Only registered Scouters that work on Eagle projects are covered by BSA insurance. Family and friends that are not registered with the BSA are </B><B><U>not</U></B><B> covered in case of an accident. For further information or questions, please contact our District Executive, </B><A HREF="mailto:robert.rabbitt@scouting.org" TARGET="_top" TITLE="mailto:robert.rabbitt@scouting.org"><U><B>Bobby Rabbitt</B></U></A><B>.</B></div> <bR> <bR> <bR> <bR> <DIV ALIGN="LEFT"></DIV> <div> <B>LAST CHANCE TO SIGN-UP !</B></div> <div> <B>COUNCIL 2018 PHILMONT CONTINGENT TREK</B></div> <div> <B>Do you have Scouts and Leaders that want to go to the Philmont Scout Ranch in 2018 ?

Individuals can visit the site, put in their zip code and find out units in their area. When they click on a unit they are given contact information for that unit so they may either call or send an email to find out more. </div> <div> We realize many of you may NOT be the Top Leader or Committee Chairperson of the unit but we need you to check out your pin at <FONT SIZE="4" COLOR="#0000FF" FACE="Arial" ><A HREF="http://www.BeAScout.org" TARGET="_top" TITLE="http://www.BeAScout.org"><U>www.BeAScout.org</U></A></FONT>. Put in your zip code and when the units come up click on your unit and see what information is listed. If the information is the council it needs to be changed to the unit information. Now if it's not populated here is the information you need to populate the pin. Please be aware that Cubmasters, Scoutmasters, Crew Advisors, along with the Unit Committee Chair and the Chartered Organization Representatives are the only volunteers who have first-time access to set up the BeAScout.org pin. These leaders will then be able to set up a total of 6 individuals in the unit to access the editing features of BeAScout.org. </div> <bR> <bR> <bR> <div> <FONT SIZE="5" COLOR="#000000" FACE="Arial" ><B><U>NEW STUFF on</U></B><B> </B></FONT><B>"</B><A HREF="id20.htm" TARGET="_top" TITLE="Events"><U><B>Events</B></U></A><B>" </B><FONT SIZE="5" COLOR="#000000" FACE="Arial" ><B><U>Page:</U></B></FONT></div> <bR> <div> <B>Summer Merit Badge Program - The Complete Package</B></div> <bR> <div> <FONT SIZE="5" COLOR="#000000" FACE="Arial" ><B><U>NEW STUFF on</U></B><B> </B></FONT><B>"</B><A HREF="id118.htm" TARGET="_top" TITLE="Training"><U><B>Training</B></U></A><B>" </B><FONT SIZE="5" COLOR="#000000" FACE="Arial" ><B><U>Page:</U></B></FONT></div> <bR> <bR> <div> <FONT SIZE="5" COLOR="#000000" FACE="Arial" ><B><U>NEW STUFF on the</U></B><B> </B></FONT><B>"</B><A HREF="id164.htm" TARGET="_top" TITLE="Everything ADVANCEMENT"><U><B>Everything ADVANCEMENT</B></U></A><B>" </B><FONT SIZE="5" COLOR="#000000" FACE="Arial" ><B><U>Page:</U></B></FONT></div> <bR> <div> <B>May - June, 2017 Issue of "Advancement News"   NEW!</B></div> <bR> <div> <B>Cub Scout Advancement Modifications printed as</B></div> <div> <B>Booklets for Tiger, Wolf, Bear and Webelos Programs   NEW!</B></div> <bR> <bR> <bR> <bR> <bR> <bR> <bR> <bR> <bR> <bR> </td> </tr></table></body>
