BE A SCOUT LAUNCH...JULY 23

Coming soon, recruiting on the web with a new National campaign "BeAScout". With this electronic tool, Unit leaders will publish their Unit information to a pin icon on a Google map. Potential new parents looking for a unit in their neighborhood will go to the website, submit their address, a pack, troop or crew in their neighborhood. Check back for more information.


GUIDE TO SAFE SCOUTING

This Unit Leader's Guide about current policies and procedures is something that all Unit's should have in their library. This is the ultimate guide to "being prepared". Download


National Policy Regarding Scouts
Participation in Political Event

Uniformed unit members and leaders may participate in flag ceremonies at political events and may lead the Pledge of Allegiance; however, they should retire after the ceremony and not remain on the speakers' platform or in a conspicuous location where television viewers could construe their presence as an endorsement or symbol of support. In addition, photos of candidates or Scouts in uniform or BSA marks and logos are not allowed in political campaign materials of any kind.

Volunteers and professionals must be alert to situations that would imply that the BSA favors one candidate over another. Strict observance of our long-standing policy against the active participation of uniformed Scouts and leaders in political events is mandatory.
