Good Morning District Chairmen,

 

I'm wondering if you would be willing to help us form a group of district and unit level volunteers who could attend an upcoming half-day dialogue to gauge our council's reaction to possible new membership policies.

 

The retreat is scheduled to be held as follows:
            Date:               Saturday, March 23, 2013
            Time:               8:00am to 12:00pm
            Location:         Roger S. Firestone Scouting Resource Center
                                    1485 Valley Forge Road
                                    Wayne, PA  19087

 

Our objective is to create a group with diverse perspectives and backgrounds.  To that end, we ask that you utilize the attached Participant Nomination Form when speaking with potential nominees.  The more diverse the nominees are, the better.  The information collected will be treated confidentially, and shared ONLY with the facilitators of the dialogue session and solely for the purpose of composing a diverse group.

 

We ask that each District provide at least five nominees.  We will be limiting our group to no more than three persons per district in order to facilitate interactive dialogue, so not everyone nominated will necessarily be selected.  Nominations must be received by Monday, March 18, so that the facilitators have enough time to review nominees. 

Nomination forms can be submitted to Torpey White via email, twhite@elkocpa.com.  We realize this doesn't give you much time, but we're very excited about the opportunity to speak with this group.

 

Please keep in mind that our aim is not to have you engage in a long-winded conversation with each person about BSA Membership Standards.  Rather, it is just to gauge, informally, where people might be coming from.  All nominees will be contacted prior to the event, and those who are not selected for the dialogue session will still have the opportunity to share their views separately.

 

Lastly, the options listed at the bottom of the nomination form are not anything but our attempt to capture a range of opinions, as we do not know what the potential resolution on the ballot in May will be.

 

Thanks in advance for your help and if you have any questions or would like to discuss any particulars please feel free to reach me on my cell phone (shown below).

 

Torpey White
Council Vice-Chairman, District Operations
