Does anyone know what this consists of? My Bishop was even unsure.

Sadly, most scout committee members never are quite sure of what they should be doing. But having a fully staffed and motivated scout committee is wonderful. And extremely rare.

Our ward announced the SC meeting in sacrament last week and also invited all scouts' parents to attend every meeting. I know that could just be more hands in the kitchen, but considering the normal number of active chefs, it could only be an improvement.

A few thoughts: Make sure your leaders are trainined Recruit merit badge counselors Plan regular courts of honor and boards of review Get tour permits Friends of Scouting The annual (or bi-annual?) troop rechartering Planning for scout camp - reserve camp, get money from the boys, send the money to camp, etc. There's alot to do if you do it right. I'm sure your council or district has training that will get you started. A great committee chairman can make a big difference. |

But those are good points Doctor Venkman. Having been on the scoutleader side of things, it sure would make things a lot easier if every unit had a well organized committee. |
