Recruitment Planning Series
Join us each week this summer for a step-by-step plan designed to help your Scouting unit prepare for a successful fall recruitment season. Each Monday, we will share a new article with specific actions to complete that week, building on the previous posts over the course of 12 weeks. Follow the plan all summer long, and your unit will be organized, prepared, and ready to welcome new families this fall.
Updating your unit’s pin on BeAScout.org is one of the most effective ways to ensure your unit remains healthy and accessible to new families. In a digital-first world, your pin serves as your unit's "digital front door."
To help your unit reach more families in your local community, Longhorn Council offers professional, paid advertising support for your unit-level joining events. Our team is currently creating a new process for requesting paid advertising. Stay tuned as we relaunch this feature in July 2026.
To support local units in their recruitment efforts, the Longhorn Council marketing team has developed a specialized library of membership marketing images. These assets are professional, high-quality, and specifically designed for use across social media platforms like Facebook and Instagram.
