2009 Quality Council Goals

In the first two years of the Centennial Quality program Blackhawk Area Council has qualified as a Quality Council both times. For 2009 we will again strive for the Quality Council designation. The Executive Committee and the District Chairs recently met to set the council goals for 2009. These goals are challenging but achievable if we all work together. However, it is difficult to achieve goals of which you are not aware. So I'm posting our goals below so everyone will know what we are going to achieve in 2009.

• At least 60% of our individual units will be Quality Units.
• We will organize 18 new units.
• We will achieve 1.00% growth in traditional membership.
• We will achieve at least a 72.2% retention level.
• We will retain at least 92.0% of our units.
• We will recruit and train 17 unit commissioners and increase commissioner visits to 4.0 per unit.
• We will recruit and train 20 additional district committee members.
• We will have an active endowment committee and secure at least 12 new endowment gifts.

As I mentioned above these are challenging goals. But with everyone from the council and districts working together they can be achieved.
