Hundreds of Scouting volunteers are investing in their time and resources to ensure a successful 1989 enrollment At the March 3rd Report meeting of all Districts and Divisions, the council had achieved 43% of its goal of $650,000. Armistead Smith, chairman of this years drive, challenged all districts to complete the campaign this year in record time. He noted that only 6% of the prospects had been called on thus far, and with this great momentum, our objective could be reached far sooner than ever. · Participation in the 1989 SME is an "Investment" in the future of Scouting and a commitment to the Chickasaw Council. Your gift to this important campaign means a deeper personal involvement. People like to help other people. Volunteers are stronger suworters of Scouting when they participate in all phases of the Scouting movement. Eight longtime leaders were presented the Silver Beaver Award recently as part of the Council Adult Recognition Banquet.

Walter, Robert W. Marshall, Sara Jme Prothero, Saul Kaplan, and Max B. Aycock. Receiving the award but not present for the picture was James B. Cross.
