The dinner is set for Friday, beginning at 6 p.m., at the Logan Country Club at Chapmanville.
The main emphasis of the annual dinner is to honor Boy Scouts throughout the Chief Cornstalk District who have attained the rank of Eagle Scout in the year 2010.
The district will also be honoring some outstanding adult leaders.
Tomblin, a Chapmanville native, recently took over as the state’s 35th governor after the resignation of Gov. Joe Manchin, who was elected to the U.S. Senate following the death of longtime U.S. Sen. Robert C. Byrd.
Tomblin is the state’s longest-serving senate president and its only lieutenant governor.
As senate president, Tomblin was named the nation’s top legislator by his peers.
All Scouts and Scouters, anyone with the Cub Scouts, Boy Scouts, Order of the Arrow, Exploring and Venturing Programs, as well as the public, are invited and encouraged to attend, according to a press release issued by the district.
The cost for the dinner is $25 per person.
