Happy Membership Monday!
The Fall sports season will be coming to a close soon which means the kids in your area will free up more time to start Scouting!
Here's how you can invite fall athletes to join your Unit.
- Ask the Sports Director if you can set up a few membership tables at the last few sports games.
- Plan a few activities for kids who swing by, like; para cord bracelets, color sheets and/or word searches. Be sure your contact information is on all of the above!
- Ask if you can set up a "gaga ball pit" on the field. All you need is 6 folding tables turned on their sides (in the shape of a hexagon) and a kickball!
- Collect contact information in your my.scouting Invitation Manager. If families want to apply on the spot, invite them to apply online and remind them to use the promo code "beascout" to save $25.
- Remind families who continue to play sports throughout the year that your Unit welcomes well-rounded kids and they are able to alternate meetings or catch up on advancements at home.
- Recruiting is a year round effort! Plan one night a month as your "Bring a Buddy" night. For example: Every 3rd Tuesday.
- Set up stations with lots of fun activities and games
- Create flyers reflecting this monthly event and distribute them at sporting events, social media outlets, PTO newsletters and community corkboards.
