MEMBERSHIP

June is here, and everyone is beginning to think about camp, and day camp and exciting summer activities. That’s wonderful, because that is a big part of what we are all about. But, summer is also the time to organize your unit’s upcoming membership campaign, because without a strong, healthy pack, troop, crew or post, those activities that we enjoy are not nearly as successful. Every unit should have an adult leader responsible for year-round for membership. Remember, new membership also includes bringing in new adult manpower to make you job easier and more enjoyable. Designate your membership chairman now so that we can begin to work together to make your unit strong.

Please send the name of your Membership Chairman to Kevin Ryan. He can be e-mailed at: keryan@bsamail.org, or call him at 757 472-9198.

 

PEER-TO-PEER RECRUITING

Good luck to all the packs and troops that are in the midst of their summertime Peer-to-Peer recruiting programs. Ninety-eight years ago, Scouting in America did not become the greatest of all youth movements due to some slick, highly orchestrated membership campaign. No, the Spirit of Scouting spread rapidly and surely, like wildfire, coast to coast, from one boy to the next boy, through action and through deed, and mostly by word of mouth. Still today, the best possible recruiter for Scouting is its active youth membership. No one can stir the imagination of a boy better than a friend can stir it. No adult can describe the fun and activities of a den meeting, or a week of day camp as well as a Cub Scout can. No adult can express the enjoyment and challenge of practicing the patrol method to a teenage boy better than a Boy Scout can.

To this end, Tidewater Council has a Peer-to-Peer Recruiting Kit for each and every unit in Kempsville District. Scouts who recruit new boys to Scouting will receive a recruiter strip to be worn on their uniform, as well as a number of other collectable incentives. These kits will be available at roundtable, and through your unit commissioner. This is the best time of year to set up a Recruiter Housewarming for your Pack or Troop. Give peer-to-peer recruiting a chance. Please, allow your Scouts the opportunity to spread the great news about Scouting to their friends and peers, as only they can.

Remember, customized doorknob hangers are available upon request, with which your scouts can canvas the neighborhood, inviting boys to your next summer event. Call Kevin Ryan at 757 472-9198 to order a few hundred today
