Vacant District Positions: Currently the Permian Basin District has vacant the positions of “District Chairman” and “District Commissioner”. It is with great regret to say good-bye to our District Commissioner John Fluth, Pastor of the United Methodist Church of Ozona. John and his family will be relocating to another community where John will preach at the local Methodist Church.

It is also with great regret that The Permian Basin must also say good-bye to its District Chairman, John Collis.  John Collis of Ozona with the Baptist Church has also relocated to assume a position in another community.  Thank you both for your support in Scouting and for serving as the District Commissioner & District Chairman for the Permian Basin. We wish you and your families the best.
   
RACE TO SCOUTING!
With the start of the new school year right around the corner, it is time to start scheduling Cub Scout and Boy Scout Rallies.  Every year the council makes available to all Unit leaders materials (flyers, posters, post cards, etc) to help maximize your Cub Scout & Boy Scout recruiting efforts.  The Council also makes available for your use the District Executive to help and assist Unit leaders with these rallies.  It is highly recommended that every unit select a “Race to Scouting Chair” to help and assist in getting this task accomplished.
   
What are the responsibilities of the Race to Scouting Chair?
   
A Race to Scouting Chair Recruits and Trains with the support of the District Executive enough volunteers to support the three aspects of the Fall Recruitment:  Cub Scout Race to Scouting Drive, Boy Scouts Troop Open Houses, and Venturing Crew Open Houses.
   
It is vital to every Unit to have a school rally at the beginning of the school year.  This is usually the time that parents are picking and choosing from a list of programs to put their children in.  With so many programs and opportunities
