The Northeast Region Jewish Committee on Scouting CHAI Award
The CHAI awards have been established to recognize individuals who have provided outstanding service on the local or regional level of Scouting. There are three levels of award as outlined at the URL listed below. (A fourth level was created a couple of years ago [and is given solely at the Chairman's discretion] to recognize lifetime achievements. A paragraph or two should be written on the back of the form outlining the reasons for the nomination. The form requires the signature of the Council Scout Executive, Local Council JCoS Chairman and one other member of the JCoS. (The Chairman's signature is not needed if the nominee is the chairman.)
Please mail the application at least thirty (30) days prior to the Northeast Region Jewish Committee on Scouting Conference to the chairman of the Northeast Committee. Complete the application based on the Award Requirements below.
The awards are presented during the annual luncheon program at the Regional Conference. You must be in attendance to receive the award.
