Governing Principles - Alpine District
The charter organization comprising the District have the critical, vested interest in the outcome of the youth and adults served by the District. Uniting the charter organizations leadership with District leadership empowers the District with both the responsibility and authority to insure BAS is meeting the needs of the charter organizations.
- In the case of LDS unites, successful implementation of any District strategy or program requires the support and active participation of a member of the Stake Presidency (Relations Committee), High Council member(s) (ADC and other district committees), the Stake Young Men Presidency and Secretary (Venture, Varsity, Scout and Membership Committees), a member of Stake Primary Presidency (Cub Committee) and other members from the stake (other District committees).
- Other charter organizations, in cooperation with the district, will establish their own, appropriate support and activity levels for members of their organization.
Share vision and purpose is the key to success. Each member of the District organization will complete Wood Badge training within 6 months of their new assignment. Bishoprics and other members of the charter organizations are encouraged to attend as well. Scout Uniform will be worn at Round Table and other district events.
