Five North Shore youth members of Scouts Canada were recently recognized for excellence in the Scout program.
Eleanor Somers (31st Capilano), Max Witte (1st West Vancouver), Alistair Bryan (18th Seymour and 31st Capilano), Felix Collazo (1st West Vancouver) and Hannah Green (31st Capilano) all received the Queen's Venturer Award from Lt.-Gov. Judith Guichon at a ceremony at Government House in Victoria.
This award is the highest that a Scout youth member can earn and requires excellence in all areas of the Scouting program, including personal development, citizenship, leadership, spirituality and outdoor skills.
In total, 57 youth from B.C. and the Yukon qualified for the honour this year.
