Schleider receives Boy Scouts of America Long Rifle Award
Michael Schleider, AEDC director of Engineering and Technical Management and Elk River District Boy Scouts District Advancement Chairman, recently received the Boy Scouts of America Middle Tennessee Council Long Rifle Award. He received this District Award of Merit at the Elk River District Adult Volunteer Recognition and 2013 Eagle Scout Banquet. The Long Rifle Award honors local unit and district-level scouters as selected by the local district committees and is presented for noteworthy service of exceptional character. The award, worn around Schleider’s neck, is a miniature long rifle pendant fashioned after the long rifle that was used by Tennessee pioneers and is suspended from a green ribbon.
