What can you do to move the Thermometers Higher?

1. Follow Up - Now is the time to follow-up, welcome and onboard new members and parents. As kids and parents experience their first meeting(s), that first experience makes a huge difference in their decision to join Scouting. Get the new youth applications into the office, read complete article .
2. Bring-A-Friend Event - Have your Scouts invite a non-Scout friend to a district sponsored Bring-A-Friend event, list of upcoming events.
3. Promote your October, November, and December Pack Meetings as ADDITIONAL Join Nights - Use the newly designed invitation cards to promote your October, November, or December pack meetings. The council will do the printing for you, order invitation cards . Let us know the dates of your pack meetings and district will add them to 'Adventure Is Calling' so prospective families can see what activities are coming up in your pack! The district will also flyer the schools that we have access to. Please use this simple form.
