Implementing the following three action points will increase the rate of retention in troops and crews, while providing the grounds for attracting new members.
ACTION POINT I
Establish a colorful, online training program and an eye-opening, weekend training session, specifically designed to improve a unit’s attendance and rate of retention.
ACTION POINT II
Continually share with members of Scouting America the kinds of fun-filled, Scout skill challenges, team building opportunities, patrol competitions, and troop-wide games that benefit the youth and their units.
ACTION POINT III
Provide an attractive resurgence of traditional outdoor skills throughout our movement, with an emphasis on putting them into action in ways that are fun, illustrating how they’re used, and providing an opportunity to rely upon them to complete a satisfying challenge.
