Your Voice Counts

We want each and every member of the Indian Nations Council Scouting 
Family to participate in the upcoming survey being conducted by the 
National Boy Scouts of America Council.

This month, the National Executive Board directed its committees to 
further engage representatives of Scouting’s family and listen to their 
perspectives and concerns regarding the organization’s membership 
standards. This will assist the officers’ working on a membership 
standards resolution to hear from you.  The approximately 1,400 voting 
members of the National Council will take action on the resolution at 
the National Annual Meeting in May 2013.

The only way to let your voice be heard and participate in the National 
Survey is to add or update your email address at the Indian Nations 
Council’s Website www.okscouts.org/email 
<http://okscouts.us1.list-manage1.com/track/click?u=2517db893b142513fe3b5fcd6&id=f69a60d5c1&e=1d581c5693> 
*TODAY*!  All emails must be submitted *_no later than February 27, 2013_*.
