2010 Silver Bears

Recipients
awarded at the district dinner April 30, 2010

The climax and highlight of this evening’s dinner is the presentation of the District Award of Merit, or the Silver Bear Award.

Candidates are nominated by their peers in the unit or district, then an impartial panel of recipients weighs the merits of these Scouters.  Districts are allowed 1 award for every 25 units, so Iron Horse’s 60 units allow the presentation of 3 awards.  Conferring these honors is Chairman of the district Training Team and Silver Bear Committee, Molly Mahlman.

Golden Spike Awards (Also awarded at the District Dinner) The Golden Spike Award is intended to honor an individual from each unit for either a single significant act or continuous service in any given capacity to the unit during the past year that demonstrated enthusiastic and inspirational service. Two awards may be given for units of more than 50 Scouts.
