For the last month, VISTA Today has been accepting nominations for the second class of VISTA Leadership Megastars, a program created in collaboration with the Chester County Council, Boy Scouts of America that recognizes 12 leaders who are shaping Chester County.

Based upon the nominations we’ve received in the last week, we have decided to extend the deadline to nominate individuals for this honor to Friday, July 15.

The 2022 Class of VISTA Leadership Megastars will be announced from Aug. 15-18 on VISTA Today. The program will then culminate with an awards reception on Oct. 20 at the Chester County Council’s new Program, Activity, and Resource Campus (PARC) in Exton.

Through Scouting, youth develop leadership and citizenship skills that influence their lives as adults. Scouting offers programs and activities that allow youth to try new things, provide service to others, build self-confidence, and reinforce ethical standards, preparing them for lives of leadership and helping to develop life-long habits of service to our community.

VISTA Leadership Megastars possess character, vision, courage, passion, and humility and embody the 12 principles of the Scout Law:

  • Trustworthy
  • Loyal
  • Helpful
  • Friendly
  • Courteous
  • Kind
  • Obedient
  • Cheerful
  • Thrifty
  • Brave
  • Clean
  • Reverent

A committee will evaluate the nominations and select the VISTA Leadership Megastars based on the following criteria:

  • Leadership (public profile, reputation)
  • Business success (financial results, career milestones)
  • Community involvement (volunteer work, advocacy)
  • Influence (impact on their community, company, industry, or on Chester County’s overall quality of place)

In addition to the VISTA Leadership Megastars, the Chester County Council, BSA will honor one individual with its Distinguished Citizen Award. This award goes to someone who has wide influence in the professional community and who has provided significant and enduring contributions to society.

Sponsorship opportunities are available. For more information, contact Lisa Antonucci at Lisa.Antonucci@scouting.org or 610-696-2900 x 112.
