Honor Scouting Volunteers

Armadillo District Norm Hummell Awards

Scouting would not exist without the time and talents of our registered adult volunteers. The Armadillo District has three types of awards to recognize these volunteers. We need you to nominate the Scouters who help make the Scouting program a success! Read the requirements for each award and see past recipients at the links below.

These awards were presented at the Armadillo District Awards Banquet on March 1, 2024 at the Fickett Center.
