Executive Board
The executive board is the functioning governing group elected to take the necessary action to achieve the purposes of Mountaineer Area Council. It establishes the council program and carries out the resolutions, policies, and activities voted on by the Council. It determines policy for the Council in accordance with its delegated authority, and within the context of the Charter and Bylaws and the Rules and Regulations of Scouting America. The board protects the long-range future of Scouting in the community.
NOTE: As of December 1, 2024, Mountaineer Area Council’s governing board will be a combination of the previous board and officers of both Mountaineer Area Council and Ohio River Valley Council until which time the council’s nominating committee presents a slate of new governing board members and officers for approval.
