Our instructors are accomplished teachers and men and women that have experience in the citizenship process in the East Valley. These include mayors, city and town council members, county supervisors, and members of the Arizona House of Representatives. We have even had the former President of the Arizona Senate, Arizona Secretary of State, and a gubernatorial candidate offer instruction at our event.
Bill Nelson, Advancement & Awards Committee Chairman of the Grand Canyon Council has said of this event that it, “will greatly assist the Scouts understanding many of the subjects whose knowledge he will need for the citizenship merit badge.”
