First, we want to thank you for taking time out of your evening to invest in your Scout unit and the youth you serve!
Whether you’re a Cub Scout pack, Scouts BSA troop, Venturing crew, or Sea Scout ship, you’re at this post because you want your unit to thrive.
That’s why we have created a “living” Google Drive covering the “10 Essential Topics” to help you be a successful unit leader no mater your role.
The simple goal of this work is to “deliver on the brand promise” and help your unit retain youth and help them grow.
What’s in the Google Drive?
Each Topic contains a folder of “Approved Resources” that have been vetted by our Program Team and other subject matter experts.
The “10 Essentias” folders are listed as follows:
01. Recruiting-Marketing-Membership Growth
02. Unit Program-Annual Planning-Retention
03. Unit Finances
04. Unit Fundraising
05. Training Tools
06. Meeting Plans-Ideas-Activities
07. Youth Leadership Growth
08. Parent Engagement-Micro Volunteering
09. Outdoor Opportunities
10. Advancement & Adult Awards
A “Living” Google Drive
The Program Team and experts are continually researching, testing and vetting various tools to keep these folders fresh and up-to-date.
Your Tools Welcome!
We also welcome your templates and tools! Send them to chris.bartell@scouting.org and he’ll pass them along to the Team.
