HAT OUTSTANDING SERVICE AWARD
This award recognizes outstanding contributions made to the High
Adventure Program by Scouts, Scouters or other supporters. It
generally recognizes volunteer service at the Council level as a
member of the High Adventure Team Committee, but may also
be used to recognize a youth who makes a significant program
contribution, a leader at the troop level who has actively used the
HAT program to benefit their youth, or an individual who
provided an extraordinary service supporting the program on a
short term basis.
This award was initiated in 2016 by Orange County Council
Troop 292 to honor Guil Caliboso, their Scoutmaster of 20 years,
who was an enthusiastic supporter
of the HAT program at both
the unit and council level.

a. Serve on a HAT committee at council, regional, inter-council, or national level for a minimum of three (3)
