Many scouters are starting to wonder how reopen scouting. While most everyone wants to jump right into full scouting that way it used to be, it is becoming more apparent that many government restrictions and parental concerns are in search of gradual, phase approached incorporating many principals of social distancing and personal safety. Below are some examples of what that looks like
Scout Unit Reopen Plan
"Be Prepared" : Scout Motto
The Scouting can still have a positive daily impact on our youth, families and community but that begins by first preparing a reasonable plan.
What is presented here are suggestions only. Situations may vary by community. Actual reopen plans should comply with directions given by local governmental agencies, national and local scout council, and the most importantly the unit key 3 leaders with support of the families of the unit.
Phase I - Virtual Scouting
Units Meetings:
- Dens/Patrols meet online weekly or maybe biweekly (to avoid "zoom burnout")

- Monthly Parent/Leaders meeting
Scouting Activities:
