Hightower Trail District Awards Banquet

Posted on Feb 7 2012 - 1:23pm
Hightower Trail Scouters,
We have the Hightower Trail District Awards Banquet coming up on Sunday, February 26 at 6:00 PM at Dunwoody Baptist Church.  I encourage each Pack, Troop, Crew and Ship to attend this event and nominate the deserving leaders in your unit for the Trailblazer Award.  Committee Chairs and Cubmasters and Scoutmasters - this is a nice opportunity for the unit to treat your leadership team to a nice dinner and evening of Scouting fellowship.  Tickets are just $15 each, so why not reserve a full table for 8 for $120?  Or go with a half table of 4 for $60.  Get your Trailblazer nominees there, and have plenty of your leaders on hand to congratulate them for the award.  We have good food and an entertaining speaker lined up for the evening, so come join us!
