Welcome to Scouting: Scout Me In

New Adventures ahead for Adult Volunteer Leaders

Welcome to the exciting world of Scouting! As new Scout families, you're embarking on a journey filled with adventure, learning, and growth. But did you know that your involvement doesn't have to stop simply bringing your child to meetings and events? We encourage you to consider becoming active adult volunteers in your child's Scout unit.

Scouting is about more than just youth development; it's a family affair. By volunteering, you'll not only strengthen the bond with your child but also play a vital role in shaping the future of our scouts. Whether you have skills in leadership, outdoor activities, crafts, or just a passion for helping kids learn and grow, there's a place for you in our units.


Volunteering can be as simple as assisting on a camping trip or taking on a leadership role within the Scout unit. Your involvement will not only create lasting memories but also set a remarkable example of service and dedication for your child. So, welcome to our scouting family, and let's make this journey even more rewarding together!

  • How will you best serve your child's Scouting unit?

  • What role will you provide for your unit?

  • Have you submitted your Adult Volunteer Application online or in person?

  • Have you completed Youth Protection Training through my.scouting.org?

  • Has your unit developed a program calendar with planned campouts?

  • Has your unit formed a committee and elected a unit committee chair?

  • Has your unit started fundraising, or plans for fundraising?

NEW: Adult Leadership Resources section has been updated and expanded on our council website. It includes links for both Cubmasters and Troop Leaders.


We plan to provide you with all of the best information possible to help our adult volunteers provide the best experience possible for your Scouts. We are here to serve you, our Scouting community. If you have questions or suggestions about what we can provide for you, we look forward to hearing from you.

Future blog posts can be tailored to the questions you have.
