The Council Adult Recognition Banquet and the Annual Eagle Recognition Banquet will be combined in 2020 due to time limitations created by COVID-19. The Council Recognition Event will be held at the Grand Pavilion in the Flint River Adventure Area of Lawhorn Scouting Base in Molena, GA. on Sunday, October 4, 2020. This year's event will certainly look different than previous years to allow for proper social distancing in an outside venue.
Each Scout who received the Eagle Rank in 2019 and high school senior Scouts who received the Eagle Rank in 2020 are eligible to attend. Over 175 scouts earned the coveted Eagle Rank in the Flint River Council during this time period and each of these young people deserve a Sponsor for this year's banquet. The Sponsor Fee covers the cost of dinner for a sponsor and one Eagle Scout plus the cost of the award presented to each Eagle Scout.
The Silver Beaver is the highest award the council can bestow on a local volunteer. We will recognize Hugh Cooper, Otis Jones, Eric Stout and Jay Weiss this year. Also being honored is the 2019 NESA Outstanding Eagle Scout Award recipient Brant Keller.
The Council Recognition Event is open to all parents, leaders, sponsors, and Friends of Scouting. For more information, please contact Danny McCranie at danny.mccranie@scouting.org or 770-365-3175.
