Dear Cub Scout Leaders (and Commissioners and other District Volunteers who love Cub Scout Leaders): Evolving since 2019 and confirmed by Field Staff in 2024, the Atlanta Area Council Membership Growth Plan for use by Districts and Units is Pack-Run (Troop-Run, Crew-Run), Year-Round and -- because "All Scouting is Local" -- focused on your local program, your local promotions, your local schools and community, your local leader needs, and your local joining events!

Go to the Atlanta Area Council Recruiting Resource Page at scoutingatl.org/recruitingresources where you’ll find:

• a link to the Recruiting Rollout Video at the top of the page
• in the downloads, the Guide to Cub Scout Family Recruiting and Spring + Summer Cub Scout Fun Ideas Guide.

Want Even More? Related pages tie into the Six Steps to Successful and Sustainable Recruiting (why these?  these are what successful Packs, Troops and Crews do):

1. Make a Calendar of Fun Activities that families like – your Pack’s big fun activities that current and future families will want to join -- activities that are fun and enriching for all.
2. Let People Know – Promote Your Pack Program!  There are many ways to let families know what you're doing -- and highlight the benefits of Cub Scouting in your local Pack.  (Don't forget to update your BeAScout Pin and Online Registration Tools)
3. Find More Leaders and Helpers - one by one, find folks who can help your unit out (do this throughout your recruiting process).  That page now has links to the recent Engagement Series Videos and many more resources.
4. School and Community Presence – “Adopt a School” and many many methods to cultivate interest and awareness in your local Pack program, and get more School and Community support.
5. Once you've laid that foundation, have Sign-Up Events: not just School Sign-Up Nights, but Fun Den and Pack Welcoming Events Too!  Any fun den or pack event can be a welcoming joining event ... and not just at "back to school" time.
6. More Fun Events.  Keep expanding and extending your Calendar of Fun Events … want ideas?  See these Fun*Simple*Easy Activities.  Many!  Want Advancement?  We have simpler, easier fun "Assembled" Den Meeting Plans and resources.  

Other Pages cover Parent Orientation and Scouts BSA Recruiting (honestly, the key methods for Troops are like the Six Steps above minus School Sign Up Night because Scouts BSA aged kids will join because they want to not because Dad and Mom want them to).   And the Council's Membership Plan is found in these downloads from the District and Council Tools page -- the Plan includes both a "School Playbook" for Professional and Pack partnership and planning for School Sign-Up Nights, plus The “What Do We Do When We Have No School Access” Playbook.
