Scouts themselves are you best resource! Seeing the “older scouts” in action is a great way to get the younger scouts interested in joining. Also, when parents see the older scouts teaching skills to their cubs at a pack meeting, many times they say, “Wow, I want my kid to be able to do that when they are older!” “M

Final thoughts by Dick Kelly, Council Commissioner
Large-scale studies have found that those who were Scouts are more likely than non-Scouts to:
• Learn the value of teamwork.• Discover what it’s like to work with others.• Assume leadership roles.• Have higher self-confidence and self-esteem.• Resist negative peer pressure.• Consider the needs of others first.• Earn higher grades in high school.• Graduate from college.• Earn higher annual household incomes.• Enjoy strong and long-lasting friendships.
Competence: Scouts master skills by doing. Scouting allows young people to practice the skills they have developed and to gain new skills in a real-world setting.
Confidence: Because Scouting activities are challenging, they naturally lead to increased confidence. As youth persist in the face of challenging obstacles and overcome them, they learn to trust their ability to do hard things and to exceed their own expectations.
Connections: Scouting programs foster teamwork by providing situations where youth must work together and support one another to overcome challenges. The outdoor nature of the program helps youth develop a respect for nature and gives them the opportunity to reflect upon their spiritual path.
Caring: As youth work together to overcome challenges, they come to depend on each other. They support and encourage one another. They meet and come to know others of different backgrounds. As a result, Scouting helps develop respect, compassion, and conflict resolution skills.
Character: All Scouting programs strive to develop character. By helping youth connect, care, become self-confident and competent, we strengthen the foundations of character that enable them to become men and women who positively impact their families, their communities, our nation, and the world.
• Physical activity• Active citizenship• Interpersonal skills and employability• Responsibility and personal commitment• Appreciation of the environment• Leadership and teamwork• Resilience and problem solving• Empathy and support for others• Respect for diverse religions and cultures• Autonomy in making personal choices

Re-Crew-ting!
Venturing Breakout
Starting a new Crew, reinvigorating an established one, and recruiting in general starts with the Venturers, the Youth.
And it all starts with one! Find that one Youth that really cares, that is really excited, and is really committed to the ideals of Scouting and Venturing.
From there, it is getting a first outing. Start small, keep it simple, and make it accessible!
A Crew grows when the Youth are active and interested!

The AIMS and METHODS of Scouting
Spelled out in the Scout Oath & Law, Motto & Slogan
Gives Scouts experience in group living and citizenship. Scouts learn responsibility and the opportunity to govern themselves.
Scouting centers around outdoor experiences allowing Scouts to share responsibilities.
Being close to nature helps Scouts gain an appreciation for the natural world.
Scouts learn to overcome obstacles through the Advancement method.
Scouts progress at their own pace. Each achievement helps Scouts gain self-confidence.
Scouts learn by watching how adults conduct themselves.
Scouters must be positive role models. Scouters can make a profound difference in a Scout’s life.
Personal growth is achieved through activities and progress toward goals.
The concept of “The Good Turn” is a major part in the personal growth method of scouting.
Uniforms are iconic and create a positive image. Scouts in uniform are expected to do what is right and projects the identity in a world brotherhood of youth and high ideals.
Scouts are encouraged to learn and practice leadership skills.
They can participate in both shared and total leadership situations.

Coming soon: “Inclusion Toolbox for Special Needs and Disabilities” Recruiting Deep Dive breakout - SDIC Membership & Relationships Team
This breakout took a deep dive on Recruitment for Scout Troops and alternate recruitment sources including the following ideas:
• Troops that have greater success by recruiting at Elementary School Open House for 5th and 6th Graders (as opposed to a Middle School Open House.)
• Units should think about every activity as a recruiting opportunity • Inviting friends to Troop Activities • Activities to support Pack Recruitment • Pass-along Cards and Bookmarkers • Encouraging every Troop to have a New Member Coordinator • Encouraging every Unit to have a recruitment plan • Encouraging every Unit to have a "Recruitment Squad".
☑ This is another link to the Google Slide Presentation from the Hot Topic and it is packed with ideas on Unit Recruiting, membership coordinators, making a plan, and much, much more! It includes Marcus' Safety Moment on recruitment events and Commissioner Kelley's presentation on the Benefits of Scouting.
☑ Here is a set of sample Unit Recruitment Plans for Packs, Troops, Crews, Ships and Posts!
