Page 8 THE VILLADOM TIMES I • June 2, 2010 Franklin Lakes Chuck Shotmeyer of Franklin Lakes has received the Silver Beaver Award in recognition of his contributions to the Northern New Jersey Council of the Boy Scouts of America. At the award ceremony, Shotmeyer was described as Boy Scouting’s most ardent promoter, a man who never misses an opportunity to extol the organization’s advantages. The honoree is an NNJC vice president, district special event chair, an assistant Scoutmaster, and the quintessential volunteer. However, when Troop 77 Scouts think of Shotmeyer, they recall the homemade chili and beef jerky he brings on camping trips and to the Iditarod. Shotmeyer was acknowledged for sharing his talents to make Scouting and his community better for today’s youth. In his hometown, Shotmeyer has served as borough council president, police commissioner, fire commissioner, president of the Franklin Lakes Republican Club, a recreation coach, and coach of the Eastern Christian Middle Shotmeyer honored with Silver Beaver Award School Quiz Bowl Academic Team. Chuck has served in many Scouting leadership positions starting as a Merit Badge Counselor in the Boston area Council in the 1980s after graduating from Babson College. He then joined Troop 77 in 2003 as an assistant Scoutmaster. He currently serves as the NNJC vice president of camping, chair of the Iaoapogh Mountains District Annual Special Fundraising Event Committee, a merit badge counselor for four badges, first assistant Scoutmaster for a 2010 NNJC Jamboree Troop, and member of the Iaoapogh Mountains District Nominating Committee. He has served as an NYLT adult staff member, OA advisor for the NOAC ceremony competition team, NNJC Camp Development Committee member, Ticket Sales Committee chair for the 2007 Scout show, and is a brotherhood member of the Order of the Arrow Lenapehoking Lodge IX. Shotmeyer takes the phrase “A Scout is reverent” seriously. He assists the troop chaplain aide with devotionals and promotes a faith based Scouting program at Bethany Church, the sponsor of Troop 77. In 2009, he received the God and Service Award.
