Southern Shores Field Service Council is a field service council of the Michigan Crossroads Council.

History

The Scouting program in the Lower Peninsula of Michigan saw drastic drop in membership beginning in the early 2000s. The decrease in population was due to the economy in Michigan and the resulting out-migration of population, jobs and industry. The Area 2 Project was created in 2010 and studied the impact on Scouting and presented the Crossroads Recommendation, which proposed that the ten councils in Michigan merge into one large council. As a result, in 2012, four field service councils were created consisting of former councils.

The Southern Shores Field Service Council is the result of a merger between the Great Sauk Trail Council and Southwest Michigan Council.[1]

Organization

The council is administratively divided into districts:

  • Lenape District serving Lenawee County and Hillsdale County
  • Three Fires District serving Livingston County
  • Running Waters District serving Monroe County and the city of Flat Rock
  • Huron Trails District serving Washtenaw County
  • Wabano District serving Van Buren County and Berrien County
  • Pathfinder District serving Kalamazoo County and St. Joseph County
  • Nottawa Trails District serving Western Calhoun County and Branch County
  • Cascades District serving Jackson County

Kishahtek Lodge 88

Kishahtek Lodge 88 serves as the Field Service Council's Order of the Arrow Lodge. The name is translated as "Northern Lights" in Lenne Lenape, and the totem is the wolverine.

The lodge was formed from merging Manitous Lodge 88 and Nacha-Mawat Lodge 373 after the Great Sauk Trail Council and Southwest Michigan Council merged into the Southern Shores Field Service Council.

Similar to the Field Service Council, the lodge is divided into chapters, which correspond within district boundaries
