The 2020/2021 Munsee Recognition and Farewell Breakfast will be held Saturday, January, 8, 2022, from 8:30 to 11:30 a.m. at Holy Spirit Church in Union, New Jersey. The breakfast will be a catered affair. Business casual attire recommended – uniforms always welcome. Please arrange for the honorees and friends from your unit to attend.

This is the perfect opportunity for the Scouters of Munsee District to recognize volunteers for their accomplishments and devotion, and a chance to celebrate the history of the district in a relaxed and cordial atmosphere.

Soon Munsee and Watchung Mountain districts together will begin a new tradition in Scouting. But we have a past to be proud of, and we will remember Munsee “With Attitude.” Come join us for a rousing farewell. And be prepared to share your war stories about the district.

Online registration for the breakfast will be open soon and will stay open until December 31, 2021. Registration is through the Munsee calendar at  www.ppcbsa.org.  The  event cost is $20 per person for early-bird registration. After December 24, 2021, the regular cost is $25, so sign up early.

Individual Awards

For 2021, please select two volunteers in your unit to receive the Munsee Knot. We all know volunteers in our units who do that little (or not so little) extra to make Scouting happen. Isn’t it time that we recognize them? Name your honorees by sending them directly to Dan Turano ([email protected]) by December 1, 2021. Information must include name, unit, position, and a from three- to five-line write-up about your unit’s honoree.

District Awards of Merit (DAM) will also be presented. The District Award of Merit is presented to Scouters who render service of outstanding nature to youth in the community through Scouting and other programs. This is the highest award that a district may present. A DAM nomination form will be emailed to you upon request. Please forward the completed form and a support information page to Dan Turano, [email protected] by December 1, 2021, for final review by the district recognition committee.

Scouts who attained the rank of Eagle Scout in 2020 and 2021 are encouraged to attend. Those Eagle Scouts and their families will be recognized for this outstanding achievement.
