2026 District Awards Banquet

‍Each year we come together to celebrate all that was accomplished in the prior year in the District. We recognize those in Hightower Trail that have been selected as a Trailblazer for their unit and those that have “gone the extra mile” in the District, providing service to a level beyond the standard. 

Come help us celebrate these men and women who are dedicated to making scouting in the Hightower Trail District the best that it can be. Mingle with fellow scouters and enjoy the wonderful banquet at the Dunwoody Nature Center.
