Leader Information

Every year at the Cogioba District Banquet we will recognize those leaders who have shown interest and dedication to Scouting by attending training events and completing the award applications. These awards are a knot that can be worn on the uniform as well as a certificate for the Leadership Training Plan.
The Application for a training award is filled out completely for the appropriate award. These awards are to recognize leaders for completing training and tenure for a specific position, not just for serving in a position.
