Commissioner's Staff
Helping Units improve their Program

The Commissioner Service is the organization within Scouting that provides a program of unit service. Due to the importance of unit service to the successful delivery of the Scouting program, you will find Commissioners at every level of Scouting. All of these Commissioners are there as a team to help assure that individual scouts get the best possible program.

Administrative/Management Commissioners: These include the District Commissioner and the Assistant District Commissioners. Their primary responsiblities are recruiting, training, guiding, and evaluating the Commissioner Staff.

Rountable Commissioners: Roundtable Commissioners provide unit leaders with resources and training in program skills through regularly scheduled roundtable meetings.

Unit Commissioners: Unit Commissioners are experienced volunteer Scouters that aid their fellow Scouters by providing a channel of communications between the Council and the Cub Scout Packs, Boy Scout Troops, and Venturing Crews they serve. They assist the leaders in the unit by helping units:

  • Operate efficiently so they can deliver the best possible program to the youth;
  • Improve their program by finding resources within the unit, district, and Council;
  • Mobilize resources to help solve problems should they arise; Recharter and achieve the Quality Unit Award every year.

They do this by being a

  • Friend- They are an advocate of the unit needs
  • Representative- They represent the Council to the unit and inform the unit of Council activities and events so that the unit may chose to participate
  • Doctor- They check on the health of units and help the unit leaders remedy any problems
  • Teacher- They teach leaders either through their own knowledge or mobilizing resources
  • Counselor- they help unit leaders solve their own problems.

A Unit Commissioner would normally be assigned 2 to 3 units - usually chartered to the same organization or geographically located near each other. The commissioner would be expected to meet with his/her assigned units on a monthly basis, attend a District Roundtable with them and attend a monthly Commissioners' meeting.

If you would like to volunteer to be a Unit Commissioner or work with either the Boy Scout or Cub Scout Roundtable Commissioners, contact Scott Williams, the District Commissioner. You will find it a worthwhile and satisfying experience.
