Looking Ahead ---
Each Cubmaster and Scoutmaster should be
reviewing their unit’s Journey to Excellence
progress several times during the year. In
August and September, focus is on the Retention and Building Cub / Boy Scouting. Venturers have similar
criteria. Now is the time to set your Unit Recruiting Goal (if you haven’t done so already) so that this is a
strong contributor to your final 2014 JTE Score when your unit recharters. It’s harder to bring larger numbers
of new members later in the year when those youth have already committed to other activities.
Reenergize Your Program Publicize your Unit Show Yourselves Off Be Proud of What you Do

Cub Scout Leaders:
As part of our Council Rechartering, we are challenged to achieve
the following:
Each new Tiger, Cub and Webelos Scout should complete the
requirements for and receive their Bobcat Badge by October
15th.
Why? Positive involvement in the advancement program as-
sures greater retention.
Each pack should have a major outdoor event within 2 months
of their Join Scouting Night.
Why? Outdoor activities are major motivators in Scouting.
Boys and families generally interact more outdoors.
Each pack should encourage their families to participate in the
first and/or second Cub Scout Family Camps at either Sand
Hill Scout Reservation or Camp Soule.
Why? Camping - being outdoors - with family and pack is a
major desire of Scouting families and many of the activities
they participate in at a Council camp are not authorized at
Pack events.
If you have an idea that you want to include in your Pack Join Scouting Night, or help that you
need, please ask your District Membership team, or your Unit Commissioner,
or your District Executive now.
Unit Leaders:
Please plan to turn in Youth applica-tions to Council each week during Au-gust and September, even into Octo-ber.
Why?
National Council looks at our registra-tion numbers not once at the end of each month, but at least 3 times each month. We need to show National Council that we are working consis-tently to improve our Membership so that we receive a Regular Charter in 2015.
~Thank you in advance!
Think outside the old box.
Let’s have fun!
