Scouts BSA Recruiting

Recruiting older youth is about a lot more than just transitioning Webelos from Cub Scouts to Boy Scouts/Scouts BSA.  The main ingredients for successful recruiting are:

  1. An annual program that includes exciting activities and year round recruiting focus
  2. A year round recruiting plan
  3. Well organized recruiting events

The resources below will help you with planning, give you recruiting ideas, and provide plans for running troop and school recruiting events.
