The American Legion Dept. of NC: Boy Scouts

While the department does not involve itself in direct support of any scouting units it is the policy of the department and it's Boy Scout Committee to encourage and support local posts in their sponsorship of scout units.
The department does this through it's selection of a number of scouting award winners and scholarship recipients.
At the annual Fall Conference the Department Boy Scout Committee selects a High Adventure Award winner from each of the 5 divisions in the department. The boy scouts who win this award receive a $800.00 scholarship towards attendance at any of the recognized "high adventure" programs sponsored by the Boy Scouts of America.
The committee selects winners of a number of scouting awards at the Legion's Mid-Winter Conference. Awards judged include the Department Scout Leader of the Year Award, the Department Cubmaster of the Year Award, the Department Scoutmaster of the Year Award, the Department Explorer Unit Leader of the Year Award, the Department Scout Leader of the Year Award (for a volunteer that is involved in Scouting other than being a unit leader), the Department Cub Scout Pack of the Year Award, the Department Boy Scout Troop of the Year Award and the Department Explorer Scout Post of the Year Award.
The individuals and organizations judged for these awards are selected and nominated by their local posts.
