RTH Achieves JTE Gold

Heart of America Council recently announced the districts that achieved Journey to Excellence Gold status for calendar 2012. Red-Tailed Hawk was cited for its achievements in areas of finance, market-share, and advancement in achieving the Gold Status. Also, the district is measured on the program effectiveness of each of its units. This program effectiveness is measured by each unit’s Journey to Excellence worksheet, so don’t forget to turn in your JTE form with your recharter this month, so that RTH can achieve Gold Status again in 2013
