Aaron Larson Recognized with Snow Canyon District's Award of Merit

Aaron Larson was recently named the St. George Southgate Stake recipient of the prestigious Snow Canyon Scouting District’s Award of Merit. 

The District’s highest annual award is a special recognition honoring those volunteer Scouters who have rendered noteworthy service to youth in and outside of Scouting, making it possible to follow Baden Powell’s example and find the true sport in scouting by focusing on “the one.”

Aaron has been a very significant member of the Scouting team while in the Bloomington Stake and continues supporting Scouts and Scouting as a member of the St. George – Southgate Stake.  He has served in every unit in Scouting from Cubs to Venturing.  He currently serves as the Varsity Coach where both he and the young men he serves are loving the interaction.  While serving as a Unit Commissioner, he was involved in all Stake Scouting activities from Merit Badge Pow Wows to Camping and Chartering.

Also recognized at the Snow Canyon District’s annual meeting and awards banquet on February 11, 2016 are former B7 Ward Scouters Matthew Chappell and Steve Gwilliam, who were both recognized with the Second Miler Award. 

The Second Miler Award is given to registered Scouters for outstanding service to boyhood and to those who have gone the extra mile in serving youth either in the District or Unit level programs of Scouting. An individual can earn this district award multiple times in recognition of continuous service. 

Congratulations to Brothers Aaron Larson, Matt Chappell and Steve Gwilliam for well-deserved recognition of their dedication to Scouting.
