Membership doesn’t happen by accident. It happens on purpose.

As we look ahead to the next Scouting year, we’re introducing a more intentional, more unified approach to growing Scouting across Circle Ten Council. This is about more than just recruiting. It’s about building a sustainable program that reaches more families, strengthens our units, and ensures Scouting continues to thrive in every community we serve.

Strong membership starts with a plan.

Across the country, the most successful councils and units follow a simple truth:
growth is not a single event—it’s a system.

That system comes down to a few key actions done consistently:

• Preparing your unit for growth
• Personally inviting families to join
• Promoting your story in the community
• Delivering a great first experience
• Welcoming and retaining new families

This Membership Channel is your guide.

Over the coming weeks, we’ll be rolling out a series of short, focused posts—each one designed to help you take the next step with confidence. Think of it as your Unit Membership Playbook, built to help you:

• Fill your pipeline with new families
• Execute stronger recruiting events
• Turn interest into registrations
• Turn new families into lifelong Scouts

This is how we Mark the Way—together.

Because every Scout’s journey starts somewhere.
And for the next family, it starts with you.
