Circle Ten Council Social Media Attention Scouts, Scoutmasters, family and friends of Scouting:
The Circle Ten Council of Boy Scouts of America is constantly growing and looking for
new ways to spread the mission of Scouting:
To prepare young people to make ethical and moral choices over their lifetimes by instilling in them
the values of the Scout Oath and Scout Law.
Our greatest asset is YOU! You love Scouting and you want all of your friends and family
to love Scouting as well, right? Please help us spread the word by following us on Social Media.

SCOUTING FOOD
As we enter the holiday season we are surrounded by images
of joy, excitement and celebration. But even in the midst of
this festivity, thousands of people in our community are
hungry with almost half of these being children. And, the
need is growing every day. Through Scouting for Food, we
have the opportunity to help alleviate this need.
Through this cooperative effort, we will make this
the largest food drive in the Circle Ten Council’s
history. Our role will be two fold. On February 7th
and February 14th, our Scouts will again canvas the
neighborhoods, knocking on doors and collecting
food that will be delivered directly to food pantries
within your community. For other ways to help,
such as assisting with the unloading at the pantries,
please contact your unit leader, district’s Scouting
for Food Chair, or your district executive.
We know that your unit calendar is full, but this
is a worthy cause and we urge your unit to be a
part of it – and to enable your leaders and Scouts
to be a part of it. Your district Scouting for Food
Chair will be contacting units soon for your
commitment.

Triple Crown of National High Adventure Award & Grand
Slam of National High Adventure Award
The Charles L. Sommers Alumni Association (SAA) in conjunction with the Boy Scouts
of America have authorized the issuance of a special certificate and patch to honor those
Scouts and Scouters who have participated in at least one qualified high adventure program
at three National High Adventure Bases operated by the Boy Scouts of America. The SAA
created the Triple Crown of National High Adventure Award (Triple Crown) in 1996 to both
promote all National High Adventure programs and help identify those Scouts with a thirst for
High Adventure who may potentially be interested in serving on the staff of the Northern Tier and
other High Adventure programs. The Boy Scouts of America’s National High Adventure Bases are:
Northern Tier High Adventure Program (Northern Tier), Philmont Scout Ranch (Philmont), Florida
National High Adventure Sea Base (Florida Sea Base), and Paul R. Christen National High Adventure
Base (The Summit).
The Grand Slam of National High Adventure Award honors those who have participated in at least
one qualifying high adventure program at all of the Boy Scouts of America’s National High
Adventure Bases: Northern Tier High Adventure Program (Northern Tier), Philmont Scout
Ranch (Philmont), Florida National High Adventure Sea Base (Florida Sea Base), and Paul R.
Christen National High Adventure Base (The Summit).
The patch for The Grand Slam Award has not been finalized yet and applications are
not being accepted at this time. Details will be released on the following
web page soon. http://www.holry.org/TripleCrownAward/

CAMPING NEWS
Accepting Staff applications
We are now Accepting Summer Camp Staff Applications for all summer camp positions. Check out the new
Summer Camp Staff page HERE for eligibility requirements, a complete list of positions, 2015 summer schedule,
and interview dates. You can also find a downloadable application or follow the links to the all new online

Winter Camp
As the leaves start to change and the relentless summer heat finally starts to subside, its time to start planning
for WINTER CAMP at Trevor Rees-Jones Scout Camp! Click HERE for the Circle Ten Council 2014 Winter
Camp page featuring the leaders guide and the new Merit Badge Addendum (available October 15) and all the
information that you need to plan your Winter Camp adventure. Staff reports on December 26, and the check in
for troops will begin on December 27. Cost is $35 per person and you can sign up through campmaster HERE.
Calling All Adult Leaders Who Love to Shoot!
What do you think the most commonly earned elective merit badges are? Rifle Shooting (13), followed quickly
by Archery (17) and finally Shotgun Shooting (26). What’s common among all these? The need for trained and
certified Adult leaders. That’s right in order for the Scouts, and Venturing Crews to participate in these activities,
units, districts and councils need to a have a large group of trained adult leaders for these three activities.
Fortunately Circle Ten has an active certification process in place and offers certification classes in Rifle, Pistol,
Shotgun, Range Safety Officer and Archery throughout the year. Check out the Circle Ten Shooting Sports
website (http://www.C10ShootingSports.org) or the Shooting Sports
Supplemental Training Page on the Circle Ten website
(http://circleten.org/shooting-sports) for more information and a list
of classes and dates. You can sign up for the classes directly from either
webpage. The Scouts and Venturing Crews need you!
Shooting Sports Merit Badge Completion Opportunity
Is your unit’s records full of Scouts who have partials in the Shooting Sports merit badges - Rifle Shooting,
Shotgun Shooting, and/or Archery? Well then we have the perfect day for you and your Scout. On Saturday,
January 17, 2015 the Circle Ten Shooting Sports Committee will be holding a Shooting Sports Merit Badge
Completion Day.
The purpose of this class is to help the Scouts get those last few incomplete requirements that have been hanging
around. We will have merit badge counselors and shooting instructors available during the event to work with
the Scout on open requirements and help the Scouts with their shooting for score requirement.
Scouts will need to sign up for the class, by using the events list on the Circle Ten Shooting Sports Website
(http://www.c10shootingsports.org/EventsList.html) and clicking on the “View Details” link for the merit
badge they wish to complete. This will display a page about the event and contains a link to a form that must
be filled out in order to register for the class. In this form the Scout must list the specific requirements he wants
to get completed at the event. Scouts may work on a reasonable number of requirements during the day, so
that everyone who signs up can get an opportunity to finish up the missing requirements. This is NOT a class
designed to start on the merit badge. The Scout will need to have researched and come prepared to answer any of
the non-shooting requirements with the counselors.
Also transportation to and from Camp TRJ will be the responsibility of the Scout (or troop) along with any food
for meals during your time at the event.
We look forward to seeing you there and getting those merit badges completed.

The Woods and Waters Foundation (WWF) is an IRS 501(c)(3) charitable
organization which works closely with the Dallas Woods and Waters Club
(DWWC) to establish mutually compatible charitable goals. Their mission is
to ensure the future of the great outdoors through conservation, preserving
wildlife, restoring habitats, and educating youth in the outdoor disciplines
and the preservation of our natural resources. They also strive to develop

adventure! It is an action-packed, fun-filled single day of
supplemental training where you choose the sessions you
wish to take. Sessions are led by experienced volunteers
and professionals who will help you enhance your ability to

Climb the Cliff
15 Stories in 2015 for $15
30 Stories for $20 (do it twice)
45 Stories for $30 (do it three times)
Make plans to take the stairs in 2015 and join us for Climb
the Cliff! Nearly 300 steps to the top of this 15-story
building overlooking Oak Cliff with the best view in Dallas.
Save the date and step up as Bison Giving Back (an Oak
Cliff Alumni Association) raises money for Oak Cliff high
school scholarships and climb the area’s largest multitenant

Also now would be a good time to review your
advancement records through the internet advancement
system at www.circle10.org. Be sure that all your Scouts
have received proper credit for the awards and badges
now even if you are not presenting them until a later date.
You can always go back in the system and print previous
copies of your advancement reports. All your new Cub
Scouts should have earned their Bobcat badge by now.
It would not be a bad idea to present those badges at a
pack ceremony to hold the interest of those young Scouts
(and their parents) for a few more months. Contact our
district’s Advancement Chair Laura Walsh for suggestions
or if you have questions. Also feel free to ask your unit
commissioner or district executive.
Recharter
Time to review our rosters and make sure we are on point
with regard to YPT (Youth Protection Training). Remember
this must be renewed every 2 years and we cannot process
your charter until all registered adults are current. It is
important to get these done on time for advancement and
unit tenure purposes. It is also a major part of every known
JTE (Journey to Excellence)!!!

from this meeting included how to access the online

have been sent out already. If you have not received your
code, please email ryan.mastellar@scouting.org. We will be
having our next Rountable on December 11th and will be
conducting Recharter for those units that come prepared
and are ready. So please make plans to attend. It will be at
7:00 PM at the Greenville LDS Church. It is very important
that we have 100% of our units represented at this event.
NOTE: In order to access online recharter you must go
to www.circleten.org then scroll all the way down to the
bottom of the page. Under volunteer there will be a link
that says RESOURCES, click it. After you have clicked that
there will be another link called INTERNET RECHARTER,
click it. It will bring you to another page where you can
either take the tutorial or begin your units recharter.
We also held face to face YPT. If you need your face to face
YPT contact Tracy Lindsey or show up to the December
Round Table.

the recharter completed in a smooth and timely manner by
ensuring that they have all of your required fees and correct
contact information.
Notes
The meeting times and dates in both December and January are a bit out of the ordinary due to a few conflicts with
events on the Council level and the busy holiday season. It
was decided that a December roundtable would not be held
because of low attendance over the past few years and the
aforementioned busy holiday schedule.
Thanks for everything you all do for Scouting, and have a
safe and happy holiday season!

Another Year in the Woods
As 2014 comes to a close, let’s reflect back on the fun
happenings in the Trinity Woods District. Rob Risko and
his team kicked off the year with amazing barbecue for
the Awards Banquet in January. Cub Fun Day and the
Camporee events held in the spring at Clements Scout
Ranch were a blast. And let’s not forget the wet and muddy
but incredibly fun Time Travel Twilight Camp! Cubs and
their families closed out the year with a beautiful weekend
of camping during the Cowboy Up! Cuboree at Trevor
Rees-Jones Scout Camp. To close out the year - an extra
chilly group campout - thanks to Chip Perryman for
organizing that!
We have come a long way this year, adding three new units
to our district. Let’s welcome Ship 11 in Athens, Pack 252
in Kerens, and Pack 256 in Dawson. We are closing out
the year with a positive increase in membership numbers,
a feat that only a handful of districts have been able to
achieve. The district’s success is a result of the hard work
and dedication of volunteers who serve faithfully.
As we look forward to 2015, the district is in great shape
to continue growing and improving, which means a better
program for Scouts and more opportunities to impact the
lives of young men and women through Scouting. We have
a strong team serving the District Committee and we are
building a strong Commissioner Staff to better support
units.
Great things are happening in the Woods!!!! I’m excited to
be a part of it!
Whatcha’ doin???
If your unit is doing something fun and exciting and you
would like to have it included in the newsletter, send it to
Laura.Eggleston@scouting.org and I will gladly include it.
