Our membership team knows not every unit is a popcorn selling unit, but fundraising is just one example of how your unit can recruit while out in your community.
Think of every public event as an opportunity to invite families to learn more about Scouting. Always be prepared with fliers, Scout "bring a buddy" business cards or display a flier with a QR code to your website so families can check out one of your meetings or activities.
The National office has launched a revamped recruitment site loaded with resources and ideas. If you're not sure where to begin with community events/appearances or how to plan a Join Scouting Night (an event created to invite interested/new families to) check out this Join Scouting Event Plan.
