COMMISSIONER SERVICE
The Commissioner Concept
The commissioner is the liason between the local council and Scouting units.
The commissioner's mission is to keep units operating at maximum efficiency,
maintain regular contact with unit leaders, counsel leaders on where
to find assistance, note weaknesses in programs, and suggest remedies.
The commissioner is successful when units effectively deliver the ideals
of Scouting to their members.

The C.L.U.E. Award is available to units that go above and beyond the Quality Unit Requirements. Check out the C.L.U.E. Award Flyer under Council Forms and Flyers.
