2026 Mike Daniels Technology Good Scout Awards Luncheon
Join us for the annual Technology Good Scout Award Luncheon, where we honor exceptional leaders from the Greater Washington, D.C. technology community who live out the values of the Scout Oath and Law in their personal and professional lives. This inspiring event celebrates integrity, service, and leadership — the foundation of Scouting and the tech industry alike.
The luncheon brings together top executives, innovators, and changemakers in the tech sector, all united in their support of Scouting America’s National Capital Area Council and its mission to build character and leadership in today’s youth.
Be sure to secure your seat early to be part of this high-impact celebration.
We are deeply grateful for the incredible support this event receives. Your generosity helps shape the next generation of leaders — and we can’t wait to celebrate with you again this year!
