At the Annual Business Meeting last night, the Nominating Committee announced that they are recommending Charlies Dodds to the Council for confirmation as the next District Commissioner of the Lone Star District.

I meet Charlie last night, he is a longtime Scouter and was formerly District Commissioner in the Orion District area prior to the last district re-organization (forgive me, I believe he said Tonkawa, but it might have been Topsanah). I am certain we will gain much from his experience and I look forward to working with him and will assist in any way I can. Charlie will be taking over as DC as soon as he receives his Commission from Council, and I will transition to Assistant District Commissioner. You can contact Charlie at ctdodds@sbcglobal.net or 214-697-0752.

Also, I wanted to pass along the registration link for NST8 Commissioner College (below). It's being held at TCC in the Old Radio Shack Headquarters where Longhorn Council University of Scouting is held, so it will be very convenient for us to attend.

In my absence last week, I requested that the CCS registration link be forwarded to you. If you missed it, please click this live link https://scoutingevent.com/480-79539. It will take you to a page that looks like the image below.

Please forward/share the link with all your Commissioners. I suggest that you share the link at least three times during January.
