Program Planning
Prepare Your Scout Unit for an Incredible Year of Fun, Adventure and AdvancementProper Planning Preceeds Performance
Every unit should conduct a Program Planning Conference to develop a year-long calendar and unit budget. Program planning is a simple but critical part of your troop’s success. Development of an annual program plan provides direction, and a sense of satisfaction and accomplishment in a job well done. Planning also makes the best possible use of your valuable volunteer time and yields a quality program for Scouts that will increase retention.
Successful Units:
1. Plan their year (and a plan to pay for it).
2. Have a successful recruiting season.
3. Have trained leaders.
