Nevada Area Council Membership Strategic Plan 2016-2020 Nevada Area Council Membership Strategic Plan 2016-2020 Revision 2/20/2017 Nevada Area Council Membership Strategic Plan 2016-2020 Executive Summary As the Council continues on the path of “volunteer-driven, professionally guided,” it is more important than ever that we establish a culture of recruiting and judiciously utilize the dedicated volunteers we have. The Nevada Area Council Membership Strategic Plan provides comprehensive, workable and implementable guidelines for the expansion of Scouting programs throughout the nine districts. Partnerships and alliances are the foundation of the Nevada Area Council Scouting Community Pyramid. In order for us to increase membership, we must continue to engage our current partners and expand the solid foundation with new, future partners. From these valuable partnerships and alliances come the volunteers and parents who have adopted Scouting as their community outreach program of choice. Atop the pyramid are the youth and parents that make our programs successful. The Nevada Area Council is where youth and parents become supportive members of the Boy Scouts of America. The Nevada Area Council Membership Strategic Plan is the road map for how we will continue to serve our Scouting community.

Recognizing the program expectations of our customer base, we must offer value to the youth and parents we serve and highlight adventure as the main topic of a disciplined recruiting campaign. Supporting the objectives and goals of the Council’s Membership Strategic Plan, the Nevada Area Council is committed to achieving the following benchmarks in 2017: The Council’s Cub Scout and Boy Scout membership growth rates are higher than the national average; 2% growth over prior year. Serve 8,700 youth in Scout programs. The Council’s Venturing and Exploring growth rates attain an overall growth rate target of 10%. Serve 350 youth in high school programs. The Council maintains a vibrant adventure program that focuses on program quality, as measured through participant feedback, versus growth in participation. Leverage national programs (e.g. Blast Into Scouting) to keep youth retention rates amongst the highest in the nation; with a target of 78% or greater. 94% of units re-charter annually. To achieve these benchmarks, the annual membership calendar will guide the Council toward success in the following focus areas: Fall New Scout Recruitment Drive (with a primary focus on recruiting new Tiger Cubs and Cub Scouts). New Unit Retention campaign to start 20 sustainable new units. Spring New Scout Recruitment Drive. High school new member recruitment / promotion drives for Varsity Scouts, Venture Crews and Exploring Posts. Timely and well managed recharter process to affect strong unit retention rates in 2017; including supporting and reengaging chartered partners. Evaluate the effectiveness of the Webelos-to-Scout transition process and recommend an improvement plan, if needed, to take effect in 2018. Ask each district to track and contact Webelos that are able to transition.

Concurrent with my service to Scouting, I have been an avid collector of Scouting memorabilia with a particular interest in commissioner insignia. Over the years, I've acquired some information on the history of commissioner service and some documentation on various areas of commissioner insignia, but have not found a single document which covers both the historical aspects of such insignia while describing and identifying all the commissioner insignia in all program areas - Cub Scouting, Boy Scouting, Exploring, Venturing, and the various roundtables. This project does that and provides a pictorial identification guide to all the insignia as well as other uniform badges that recognize commissioners for tenure or service.

  • A Cartographic Depiction and Exploration of the Boy Scouts of America’S Historical Membership Patterns
    A Cartographic Depiction and Exploration of the Boy Scouts of America’s Historical Membership Patterns BY Matthew Finn Hubbard Submitted to the graduate degree program in Geography and the Graduate Faculty of the University of Kansas in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts. ____________________________ Chairperson Dr. Stephen Egbert ____________________________ Dr. Terry Slocum ____________________________ Dr. Xingong Li Date Defended: 11/22/2016 The Thesis committee for Matthew Finn Hubbard Certifies that this is the approved version of the following thesis: A Cartographic Depiction and Exploration of the Boy Scouts of America’s Historical Membership Patterns ____________________________ Chairperson Dr. Stephen Egbert Date approved: (12/07/2016) ii Abstract The purpose of this thesis is to examine the historical membership patterns of the Boy Scouts of America (BSA) on a regional and council scale. Using Annual Report data, maps were created to show membership patterns within the BSA’s 12 regions, and over 300 councils when available. The examination of maps reveals the membership impacts of internal and external policy changes upon the Boy Scouts of America. The maps also show how American cultural shifts have impacted the BSA. After reviewing this thesis, the reader should have a greater understanding of the creation, growth, dispersion, and eventual decline in membership of the Boy Scouts of America. Due to the popularity of the organization, and its long history, the reader may also glean some information about American culture in the 20th century as viewed through the lens of the BSA’s rise and fall in popularity. iii Table of Contents Author’s Preface ................................................................................................................pg.

  • Fee Increase FAQ
    Fee Increase FAQ Q: Why are the fees increasing now? A: The Boy Scouts of America has kept the annual membership fee as low as possible for many years by subsidizing core costs. We did this in order to make Scouting available to as many young people as possible. Meanwhile, costs have increased every year, including costs for liability insurance which we must carry to cover all official Scouting activities. As the organization’s financial situation has shifted over the past several months, it is no longer possible to subsidize at the level we have in the past, especially as the cost of insurance has increased dramatically. Q: Does this apply to youth members and volunteers? A: Yes, the new fees apply for youth and adult members. Effective January 1, 2020, the new fees are: - $60 for youth members in Cub Scouts, Scouts BSA, Venturing and Sea Scouts, - $36 for youth members in Exploring, and - $36 for adult members (includes cost of background check and Scouting Magazine) - $60 for unit charter fees Q: Is Scouting still a good value? A: Absolutely! While most extracurricular activities are seasonal, Scouting is a year-round program that remains one of the most valuable investments we can make to support young men and women today so they can become the leaders we will turn to tomorrow. For most of our youth members, the new registration fee amounts to $5 a month. This is a tremendous value when you consider that many seasonal extracurricular activities often start at $100 for programs that last a few weeks.
