District Award of Merit
The District Award of Merit is awarded by a District to volunteers for service to youth in the District. It is the highest award given to a Scouter at the District level. The District Award of Merit is a council award presented by districts in the same manner that the Silver Beaver is a national award presented by councils. Link to District Award of Merit page:

A district is a geographical area of the council determined by the council executive board to help ensure the growth and success of Scouting units within the district’s territory. The district committee, along with a professional advisor called the district executive, is responsible for administering the program, ensuring its financial success, making connections in the community, shepherding established Scouting units, and adhering to national standards, goals, and objectives.
