Before launching your recruiting drive - stock up on these essential items.

  1. Update Unit BeAScout Pin: - During recruitment it will be easier to point new signups to the online registration link at BeAScout.org. Only a member of the Unit Key3 can edit this item, however, it should prominently display a email to your unit recruiter/new member coordinator. Also link it to a digital online recruitment flyer (using your website).
  2. Prepare Unit One-Sheet: one-page flyer about the unit, important contacts, annual calendar of events and unit goals (Ie "have fun").
  3. Stack of Scout Interest Cards:
  4. New Scout Welcome Kits -
  1. Stack of Boys Life Samples:
  2. Unit Poster Exhibit:
  3. Council Resourse Room: Usually a giant library of lots of free promotional material shipped to each council from National.
