Battlefield District
The Battlefield District encompasses that portion of Hanover and Henrico Counties east of Interstate 95 and all of Charles City and New Kent Counties and serves 77 Cub Scout Packs, Boy Scout Troops and Venture Crews whose aggregate youth membership exceeds 1,700. The fact that the Battlefield District is a Quality District is due primarily to efforts of the many adult volunteers who serve at the unit and District levels and give the leadership and time that is necessary for the District to be able to provide the many quality programs and services to our scouting youth.
The Battlefield District is proud to be a part of the Heart of Virginia Council, Boy Scouts of America...

Training Record Collection |
|
|
Attached is the new training record collection PDF form that the Battlefield District will be using to collect Adult Leader Training Records. Also, attached is an Excel version that you can fill out and save. This is in preparation for the mandatory training requirements coming in 2010 and 2011.
The form should be filled out for each leader and certified by the Unit Committee chair. The leaders can fill out their own form or it can be done by the committee from Troopmaster/Packmaster records.
The Unit Chairman should turn this in to their Unit Commissioner or at Roundtable/Commissioner’s Meeting. If you do not know who your Unit Commissioner is contact Wendy Starke (wendyfriedhoff@comcast.net).
For more information about training in the District, please contact the Battlefield District Training Chair, Dean Long cubpack505@comcast.net at 804-572-8044. |
