5 Registrar Ramblings As of this posting, COSSAR has 308 members. This includes 6 new members since January 1st, and 2 reinstatements or transfer in. Five ( 5 ) new applications have been submitted to the National office. Sixteen (16) supplemental applications have been submitted and approved with 2 additional applications at National. The Annual Reconciliation Report was submitted to and accepted by National prior to the due date of January 31st 2014 and the final membership tally to begin the year 2014 was 301 members. New Members since the last report: 1. Verlyn Barker ME 2. Robert D. Cassiday LP 3. McCarron, Lonnie PP 4. Robert S. Witt PP 5. William C. Easton III - transfer ME 6. Gary E. Manning PP 7. Ryan E.

Alexander P. Turner ME 16. Charles R. Hatch PP 17. Michael W. Schmeeckle LP 18. Raymond C. Houck GM Thomas A Brown, COSSAR Registrar` Eagle Scout Committee Report The Eagle Scout committee received only three scholarship applications for the year 2013 and four for the year No Colorado Eagle Scout has been competitive for the NASSAR scholarship for many years. Considering the many young men that achieved the rank of Eagle Scout in Colorado over those two years, it would not be difficult to come to the conclusion that our program is failing to attract their interest. Accordingly, our program needs to be reviewed for 2014.I see three problems with our program. First, the amount of the award, $250.00, is insufficient to motivate most of our Eagle Scouts to go to the considerable effort required to apply. The low number of applicants to choose from usually means that we will not produce a competitive candidate for the national award. Second, we have no effective mechanism publicize our program. Third, we have an overly subjective evaluation process to select our top candidate. If we are to attract the interest of our Eagle Scouts, we will have to make it worth their while to apply for it. That would entail a substantial increase in the amount of the CaSSAR award. We need a better way to publicize our State Eagle Scout program. This could entail using a different marketing channel. For example, the Colorado Society of Mayflower Descendants markets their scholarship program through the guidance counselors in Colorado high schools by sending a scholarship announcement and application package to every high school in Colorado. Obviously, that entails an investment in the cost of mailing and copying the material and a degree of labor to put together the packages, label the envelopes and mail them. Electronic distribution might be one way to reduce such a cost. First Quarter 2014 Page 5
6 We have addressed the third problem by developing a more quantitative method to rank candidates that takes the NASSAR criteria into account with a spreadsheet that looks at each category and awards points in a more objective manner but still leaves room for some subjective interpretation. We have also developed a worksheet to more objectively evaluate the written essay that is required for each application. Anthony S. Clark COSSAR Eagle Scout Committee Chairman The National Society, Sons Of The American Revolution General Officer's Report Report of activities: I presented my "Genealogy Seminar - Recruiting and Qualifying the Prospective Member" at the California Society state meeting in November, 2013 and am scheduled to present this seminar at the Illinois Society meeting on Feb 7, the Texas Society meeting in March, the Louisiana and Oklahoma Society meetings in April, and the Ohio Society meeting in May. The power-point slides and script, along with a video of the presentation, are posted on the National SAR web site, accessible by clicking on the Genealogy Tab, and scrolling down and clicking on the "Genealogy Seminar" URL. Chapters and states that implemented the ideas presented report recruiting success. I've extended my seminar by including a section on efficiently handling large numbers of applications at the chapter level. I'll be presenting this extended seminar at Congress in Greenville, SC in July, open to all. For the past 2 3/4 years, I've continued to maintain close contact with the genealogy staff and state genealogy points of contact to ensure accurate adherence to genealogical processes, procedures, principles, and policies. Almost all pended applications over three Years old on file have been eliminated. The state points of contact continue to turn in more "approval-ready" applications, thus shortening the review time and keeping the backlog of applications down to approximately five weeks. The number of new member applications submitted in 2013 (3728) was slightly lower than the total number submitted in 2012 (3786). Similarly, the number of supplemental applications submitted in 2013 (1498) was slightly lower than the total number submitted in 2012 (1503). For the period - September 2013 to 31 January 2014, there were 1588 new applications received, 1064 new applications approved, and 77 new applications pended. For that same period, there were 812 supplemental applications received, 441 supplemental applications approved, and 36 supplemental applications pended. Yours in Patriotic Service, Cot. Larry P. Cornwell, USAF-Ret. COSSAR Color Guard The COSSAR Color Guard now numbers up to eight members as events present themselves, with expectation of an available "Minute Man" list of ten to fifteen more as needed. Contributions and matching funds from the Mount Evans Chapter, along with Project funds authorized by the BOM have enabled the purchase of uniforms and equipment to completely outfit five participants as Continental Army or Militia participants. By eliminating or reducing the cost of participation, the hope is that more Compatriots across the state will participate in the Color Guard; projecting the face of COSSAR in the community on a more regular basis and enjoying a more active role in the SAR. The Color Guard appeared and presented the Colors most recently at the COSSAR state luncheon, with review by the President General, as well as participation at the CAR state meeting and the DAR Columbine Chapter Social. On March 29, the CG will present the Colors; participating with the Northern Colorado Fife and Drum Corps at the Colorado Mammoth game. First Quarter 2014 Page 6
