2010 Fall Roundup
|
|
There is no better way to recruit new Scouts in the fall than being prepared for Roundup. A lot of new folks will join the Scouting Family this fall and you want to keep them on board!
Shortly, all school nights should be set for our fall recruitment. Please make sure to have your Pack’s recruitment date in your calendar. In order to ensure all boys have more than one opportunity to be a Scout, let’s all (Packs, Troops, & Crews) target our churches or Chartering Organizations as well.
Let’s all make every effort to have leadership in place before the school nights. By securing all leadership positions over the summer, the fall transition is much easier and is more deserving for all new, and returning, Scouts. Once again, if we can be proactive and secure leadership now, we will be able to keep more boys in Scouting. Remember, every boy deserves every opportunity to be in Scouting programs, and once he becomes a Scout, let’s make sure he stays a Scout, for this will stay with him throughout his life

The POPCORN Kick Off will be held on August 26th @

Center. This will be an activity with fun, games and a lot of information so come ready to have a good time. Popcorn sales are a vital way for units to earn money for trips, recharter costs, and program supplies. Many Units finance their entire year of Scouting through Popcorn Sales. Southbounders sold more popcorn than any other district in the council last year and I am looking forward to seeing you at this event to ensure another successful year! |

Not only will your Pack have another ribbon on your flag, but also your boys will have fun and stay in Scouting. It can be a picnic, a day at the zoo or family camping or the baseball game on August 9th. No matter what you choose, the boys will get even more fired up about the adventures Scouting has to offer. Call the council office for more details.

Scouting provides the opportunity to strengthen ties between family members, create great family memories, and develop a shared family foundation of worthwhile virtues and values. The Generations Connection encourages Scouts to explore the positive impact of Scouting on families through a program centered around the enduring symbol of the tree.
