Parent Participation
We are a 100% volunteer run organization, which means that we cannot make scouting happen without parental/guardian/family member involvement. Generally, we need parent volunteers in two areas: scouting and auxiliary.
Scouting volunteers take on a leadership role and engage directly with the children, so background checks are required. Also, consider becoming a Rover Scout and receive training. Scouting is super rewarding and a great example for your kids to see you scout alongside them.
Auxiliary volunteers assist with all things required to keep the group running. Positions include:
