#29 -Grilling a District Executive
In our continuing quest to find out what those people do above the unit level, we get to talk to a District Executive about his job and how it helps the units and the Scouts. The conversation gets very interesting quickly and will get a lot of people talking about their relationship with their District. Questions? Send them in!
Also, as we announce in the show, we will be taking next week off to get our own Packs in line and ready for the school year. In the meantime, don’t forget to check out the forums!
