Imagine one of your Scouts at recess on the first day of school telling his buddies what he did this summer. As the Scout lists off all the fun things he did, he will have his friends asking how they can get in on the fun. It's called peer to peer recruitment and it has proven to be the best way to introduce more youth to Scouting.  

 

What is more important? The funds to have a quality program or getting boys in the program? The answer of course is both! While not all fun activities cost money, it sure helps provide a quality program. A quality program is a magnet for new youth.

 

Get the best methods for Popcorn and Membership Recruitment at the summer Extravaganza nearest you.  Reconnect with other leaders over some food and learn about all the new methods for fall recruitment and the 2012 popcorn campaign.
