Join the De Soto District Committee!
The De Soto District Committee provides direct support to all Scouting units within our geographical boundaries by focusing on membership, finance, and program. Our District is responsible for the organization of new Scouting units and coordinating recruitment efforts; supporting the Council operating budget by facilitating various product sales and fundraising campaigns; and supplementing unit programs with opportunities for camping, special activities, community service, adult leader training, youth advancement and recognition.
If you are interested in putting your talents to work for the betterment of our Scouts, please contact Ronda Plummer ronda.plummer@scouting.org
Join the De Soto District Commissioner Corps!
The De Soto District Commissioner Corps provides direct service to Pack and Troop leadership, most often providing a link to District Committee resources in support of a quality unit program. Our Commissioners can help in many ways: coaching unit leadership, offering to be an extra pair of hands when needed, facilitating a successful charter renewal, and helping find solutions that enable continued unit improvement and success.
If you are interested in bringing your Scouting knowledge and experience in service of others, please contact David Miller, District Commissioner (dandbmiller74@gmail.com)
