Join Scouting Night Resources
In the LaSalle Council, we want all of our leaders to be fully equipped for the dazzling night that great little minds enter your Join Night and leave knowing they are about to begin a new adventure in Scouting! August and September are two of the most important months on the calendar because Cub Scout Packs all across our eight-county area gear up for recruiting and fall programs.
Everything you need to run a great Join Scouting Night is here to give new youth the opportunity to launch into Scouting! From table cards for elementary grades to handouts, logos, and parent guides. It's all here for your use!
This ONE recruitment session will set the tone for the entire Scouting year!
Every leader is vital for Join Scouting Night. Help your own unit, or help another one nearby. It's a team effort!
With your hard work, we can give every youth in our area the opportunity to Launch Into Scouting.
