Congratulations are due to Chuck Walneck who was selected by the BSA to receive the Silver Buffalo. Created in 1925, the Silver Buffalo Award for distinguished service to youth is awarded to those persons who give noteworthy and extraordinary service to youth. This award is Scouting's highest commendation of the invaluable contributions that outstanding Americans make to youth. The service must be national in scope and can be independent of, or directly through, the Boy Scouts of America. The award will be presented at the National Convention in May.
Chuck joins Frank O. Lowden (1942), R. Ray Wood (2006), and Mary Anne Rounds (2007) as Blackhawk Area Council recipients of the award.

Another award recipient is Mark Rauschenburger from Wanchanagi District. Mark was awarded the Daniel Carter Beard Masonic Scouter Award by the Masonic Lodge. The Daniel Carter Beard Masonic Scouter Award is an honor available to members of the Masonic Lodge who act as role models and provide dedicated service to the young men in the BSA. The Award not only supports the Masonic relationship through the man who brought Scouting to America, but proclaims the integrity of the recipient who is honored by receiving the award. Mark is believed to be the first in Blackhawk Area Council to have received the award. Congratulations to Mark.
