Mark the Way: Your Launch Pad for Growth

Your Joining Night Is Your Launch Pad

For many families, your joining event is their first real experience with Scouting.

It's where curiosity turns into excitement, questions become confidence, and interested families become new Scouts.

That's why every joining event matters.

Right now, Circle Ten Council is putting the finishing touches on this year's recruitment plan and the resources designed to help make your joining events more successful than ever.

Over the coming weeks, your district executive and district membership team will begin working with your unit to plan your recruiting efforts. Together, you'll identify your joining event dates, coordinate school and community opportunities, and prepare for a successful recruiting season.

We'll also be rolling out new resources to support you every step of the way, including:

• Planning guides
• Promotional materials
• Recruiting tools
• Best practices for engaging families
• Resources to help turn interest into registrations

You won't be doing this alone.

Whether this is your first recruiting season or your fiftieth, your district team is here to help your unit create an outstanding first impression for every family who walks through the door.

Because a great joining event doesn't just introduce families to Scouting.

It inspires them to become part of it.
