The goals are intended bolster Scouting’s commitment to being the PREMIER youth serving organization in the Nation. To that end, all Western Region Councils will be working harder to achieve 100% Youth Protection Training (YPT) for our adult scouting leaders. Our new goals are as follows: 1. Current YPT is mandatory for all new registrations and re-chartering. 2. YPT must be completed annually. a. Additionally, it is important to note that YPT training should be renewed before it expires so there are no gaps in a Scouter’s training being current. Achieving these goals is very doable however, it will involve paying more attention to our adult leaders’ training records and ensuring that new leader applications include a copy of the YPT certificate. The leadership of each Crew, Post, Troop, and Pack will have to be proactive Unit YPT Champions! Youth Protection Training can be easily accomplished via the Internet through www.myscouting.org Recognizing that not every leader has internet access, our Council, with the assistance of our district and unit leaders, will work to support additional Youth Protection Training opportunities. These could be accomplished through sessions at our 'Roundtables" and individual unit meetings by making available computer or video based learning/testing material. All of this is geared towards the protection of our youth members. As Deputy Chief Scout Executive Gary Butler put it, “Youth Protection will become so engrained in the BSA culture that it is second in recognition only to the Scout Oath and Scout Law.” Don’t wait, encourage your Scouters to update their training now, the urgency of recharter season is not the time you want to be worrying about YPT. We don’t want to drop anyone from the program. Yours in Scouting, Joseph Cleary, CIEC Youth Protection Champion |
New | Mt. Rubidoux District Cedar Badge | | The rainy weather could not dampen the Scouting spirit at Cedar Badge ILST over the weekend of May 15-16. The rain ceased a few hours before the start of the original Cedar Badge, which is Mt. Rubidoux District’s version of BSA’s Introduction to Leadership Skills for Troops that includes an overnighter and covers the Patrol Leader Handbook. The course drew 41 Scouts (and formed into seven patrols) to the training held at the LDS church on Blaine Street in Riverside. A troop from 29 Palms sent five Scouts to Cedar Badge because, a leader told us, we have a rep of putting on one terrific show! That we did with Scouts learning about the patrol method and a boy-led troop, playing team-building games that focused on leadership skills, and singing lots and lots of songs (and going a little cuckoo over one!). With a theme of Marvel Heroes, the course was populated by mighty Thors, hulking Hulks and heavy metal Ironmen, among others. Good food, a super staff and generous servings of “carrots” made for a memorable weekend of pure Scouting that ended with a campfire program and awards. The next edition of Cedar Badge ILST will be in October. | New | Venturing Rendezvous | | Despite the weather the VOA Rendezvous had a great turnout of 70 youth and adults representing 9 Crews. Activities throughout the day and into the evening included archery, rifle shooting, shotgun shooting, roping, team building, and line dancing. Our great kitchen staff hit all the marks on our western themed weekend, by making pulled pork and ribs for Saturday nights dinner. Annual elections were held after dinner and new officers were selected. Congratulations Laura Gruendner crew 604 as President, Jonathan Stanley crew 11 as Vice President of Program, Nikolas Little crew 641 as Vice President of Administration, and Maddie Sesma crew 107 as Vice President of Communications. To end our wild western weekend we had beautiful sunshine and smiling venturers. Jonathan Stanley & Laura Gruendner | New | Great American Clean-Up | | Pack 97 participated in the Keep Riverside Clean and Beautiful "Great American Clean-Up" Saturday, May 9. Over 25 participants on three different routes cleaned up trash and debris all around Bergamont Park, up and down Van Buren and down Krameria to Mark Twain Elementary. By participating in this annual Great American Clean-Up, these scouts and their families were part of a larger collective effort of more than 4 million participants in over 20,000 communities across the country. Team Leader Diane Skiff says, "Let's remember that service to the community is a big part of the scouting experience. Little scouts can make a big difference if you just give them a chance." | New | Camp Wiley Attendance Report | | | Week 2 | Week 3 | Week 4 | Week 5 | | June 25-28 | June 29- July 2 | July 27-July 30 | July 31-Aug 3 | Campsite | | Youth | Adult | Pack # | Youth | Adult | Pack # | Youth | Adult | Pack # | Youth | Adult | Bridger 20 | TM 205 | 10 | 10 | | | | | | | 3P 374 | 10 | 10 | FULL | | | | | | | | | FULL | | | Cahuilla 50 | HD 257 | 13 | 13 | | | | | | | TQ 614 | 25 | 22 | | | | | | | | | | FULL | | | Coil *30 | TM 41 | 4 | 3 | MR 222 | 15 | 14 | | | | GB 16 | 1 | 1 | SU 76 | 4 | 4 | | | | | | | TM 214 | 7 | 7 | TM 251 | 5 | 4 | | | | | | | TM 999 | 4 | 4 | | | | FULL | | | | | | FULL | | | Daniel Boone 20 | | | | | | | | | | 3PK 6006 | 2 | 2 | | | | | | | | | | MR 116 | 3 | 3 | Freemont 20 | TM 205 | 9 | 5 | | | | | | | 3P 374 | 12 | 10 | | | | | | | | | | FULL | | | Goldware*14 | TQ 346 | 6 | 6 | SU 377 | 1 | 1 | SU 377 | 4 | 2 | TM 41 | 1 | 1 | SU 377 | 1 | 1 | AH 3128 | 4 | 4 | HD 26 | 5 | 5 | HD 169 | 1 | 1 | | | | | | | | | | MR 1887 | 3 | 3 | Harris *30 | AH 247 | 10 | 3 | | | | TM 41 | 3 | 3 | TM 214 | 15 | 15 | | | | | | | HD 169 | 1 | 1 | | | | | | | | | | | | | FULL | | | Hayes 20 | | | | TM 41 | 2 | 2 | | | | TQ 30 | 3 | 3 | Lewis & Clark 10 | TM 41 | 2 | 2 | SU 903 | 3 | 3 | TQ 614 | 1 | 1 | | | | SU 131 | 3 | 3 | | | | | | | | | | Mellor *40 | MR 62 | 9 | 8 | MR 1887 | 2 | 2 | SU 377 | 20 | 20 | MR 176 | 20 | 20 | TM 2399 | 2 | 2 | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | FULL | | | FULL | | | Owls Roost 20 | TQ 301 | 12 | 11 | | | | | | | TM 134 | 7 | 6 | Swartzel *20 | TQ 384 | 7 | 7 | 5N 642 | 5 | 2 | HD 152 | 6 | 7 | TQ 332 | 9 | 9 | | | | 3Pk 46 | 1 | 1 | SU 78 | 1 | 1 | | | | | | | | | | | | | FULL | | | * Tent Campsite | Total | 97 | 82 | Total | 33 | 29 | Total | 41 | 40 | Total | 123 | 117 | weekly cap: 294 | | 179 | | 62 | | 81 | | 240 | Total Campers: | Youth | 294 | Adult | 268 | | | | | | | | | | New | Camp Emerson Attendance Report | | Camp Emerson | Week 1 | | Week 2 | | Week 3 | Campsite | Tr # | Youth | Adult | Tr # | Youth | Adult | Tr # | Youth | Adult | Big Oak (50) | 3P Tr408 | 20 | 3 | | | | | | | Bridger (20) | MR Tr433 | 8 | 2 | 5N Tr520 | 8 | 2 | 5N Tr428 | 14 | 2 | | | | | | | | GB Tr29 | 3 | 2 | Cahuilla Flats (50) | | | | MR Tr506 | 5 | 2 | 5N Tr95 | 5 | 2 | | | | | | | | SU Tr368 | 11 | 2 | Broken Arrow (40) | | | | | | | | | | Coil (30) | LV Tr1720 | 16 | 3 | SU Tr50 | 8 | 2 | AH Tr200 | 15 | 5 | | HD Tr465 | 6 | 2 | SDIC Tr708 | 11 | 2 | MR Tr286 | 6 | 2 | Dan Boone (20) | | | | | | | GB Tr117 | 13 | 4 | Eagle Nest (25) | | | | | | | | | | Firestone (25) | | | | | | | MR Tr706 | 20 | 2 | Freemont (20) | | | | | | | OB Tr641 | 6 | 2 | Goldware (14) | HD Tr357 | 12 | 2 | GB Tr44 | 7 | 2 | GB Tr231 | 7 | 2 | | FULL | | | | | | | | | Harris (30) | TQ Tr910 | 8 | 2 | LVC Tr849 | 6 | 2 | MR Tr6 | 6 | 2 | | GB Tr227 | 5 | 2 | MR Tr806 | 5 | 2 | TQ Tr888 | 9 | 2 | | HD Tr 159 | 9 | 2 | MR TR129 | 6 | 2 | SU Tr368 | 9 | 2 | | | | | HD Tr574 | 5 | 2 | | | | Hayes (20) | TQ Tr833 | 6 | 2 | | | | 5N Tr395 | 6 | 2 | Lewis & Clark (10) | | | | TM Tr499 | 6 | 2 | | | | Mellor (40) | OCC Tr1226 | 15 | 4 | AH Tr10 | 10 | 2 | HD Tr456 | 8 | 2 | | HD Tr365 | 10 | 2 | GB Tr35 | 16 | 3 | AH Tr512 | 6 | 2 | | | | | MR Tr921 | 7 | 2 | AH Tr510 | 13 | 3 | Owl's Roost (20) | | | | | | | | | | Swartzel (20) | MR Tr90 | 2 | 0 | WLAA T219 | 1 | 0 | BS AH Tr257 | 1 | 0 | | SU | 1 | 0 | | | | WLAA T219 | 1 | 0 | | AH Tr128 | 1 | 0 | MR Tr270 | 1 | 0 | | | | | TQ Tr2011 | 2 | 0 | | | | | | | | BG Lone Sc | 1 | 1 | GB Tr 322 | 2 | 1 | | | | E Team | | | | | | | | | | Capacity 255/ wk | | Youth | Adult | | Youth | Adult | | Youth | Adult | | | 122 | 24 | | 104 | 28 | | 159 | 40 | GRAND TOTAL | Youth | 385 | | Adults | 92 | | | | | | New | Friends Of Scouting Report | | 05/18/2015 | 2015 Goal | 2015 Pledged (Year To Date) | % of Goal | Cash Paid (Year to Date) | # of Donors | Donors Asked | % of Donors Asked | 5/19/2014 Pledged | Tahquitz | $153,000 | $140,770 | 92.0% | $125,148 | 1,838 | 939 | 51.1% | $135,848 | Arrowhead | $55,000 | $44,680 | 81.2% | $40,312 | 947 | 442 | 46.7% | $34,398 | High Desert | $97,000 | $78,510 | 80.9% | $61,016 | 1,140 | 580 | 50.9% | $85,917 | Mt.
