The National Executive Board of the Boy Scouts of America has confirmed a scheduled February 1, 2019 launch date for the program to serve girls, ages 11-17. This timing is intended to align with the programmatic timeline so that girls who join Cub Scouts in 2018 and will have earned their Arrow of Light are able to cross over to a troop to continue their Scouting journey.
The Board also approved the option of a linked troop structure that would allow existing boy troops and future girl troops the opportunity to be linked through a shared COR and troop committee.
The Green Mountain Council leadership team will be discussing this process and how we will help support and incorporate it into our Council’s troop programs at the All Council Summit on March 24th. In addition, there will be more detailed information on the Family Program for Cub Scouts, which will be officially rolled out later this spring for our Council.
For more information on this and other Family Scouting information go to www.scouting.org/familyscouting. This is the national website that provides all of the most recent and accurate information to local Councils and volunteer leaders. Hope to see everyone at the All Council Summit on March 24th at the LDS church, 244 Hersey Road, Berlin, VT. Start time is 9 AM. Please RSVP your attendance to Arlene Matheson at Arlene.matheson@scouting.org.
