Welcome to Bryan Roesler who has started in his position of Del-Mi District Executive. Bryan is an Eagle Scout and spent over 10 years as a youth in the Scouting program in the Heart of America Council.
He completed his undergraduate studies at Wabash College and graduate work at IUPUI in Indianapolis. With his degrees in non-profit management and philanthropy, he brings a wealth of knowledge that will help the Del-Mi District in our goals of involving every eligible youth in Scouting.
Bryan and Nat will be working closely over the next several months to help bring him up-to-speed on how to effectively serve volunteers in the Del-Mi District. As they work to transition items over to Bryan, please be patient with them as they learn how to work together as a team.
