Our
Troop supports the new ScoutParent program recently introduced by the Boy
Scouts of America. What is a ScoutParent? A ScoutParent is a
parent or adult mentor of a Scout who enthusiastically participates with
their Scout and also helps other volunteers to provide the best quality
Scouting program experience to all youth in the unit. A ScoutParent:
Leads their family in obtaining the values, benefits, experiences and
rewards from their family’s Scouting participation, and in sharing these
with others; Enjoys participating with his or her Scout and inspires their
child to
persevere
in Scouting with their tenure, activity participation and achievement; Helps
enhance youth and parent-mentor recruitment, retention, enthusiasm,
commitment and participation in the passionate GREAT Family FUN of Scouting
