PTA PACKET PICK-UP/SCHOOL REGISTRATION (Free to $)
If allowed, have a display table at your school’s Packet Pick-up/Registration event.
These are usually held a few days to a week or so before school starts, and are often manned and organized by the PTA. Put up your display board with all the fun photos and have informational flyers with the specifics of JSN and a brief description of Scouting FUN!!!! Have a contact information sheet to capture as many names/phone #’s of interested parties as you can. For those that sign-up, follow-up telephonically or via e-mail with a personal invite to JSN. Ask Pack leadership who might be “working” the event as PTA volunteers to wear their uniform shirts so they are identifiable as Cub Scout Leaders. You can print out labels for the leaders to wear as name tags that say, “ASK ME ABOUT CUB SCOUTS!” Lots of parents, especially those new to the school, are looking for information about Scouting.
