DISTRICT
EXECUTIVE Webelos
Transition Cub
Scout Packs should be crossing over their second year Webelos into Boy Scout
Troops. There are far too many Cub Scouts lost in this transition. Scout
masters, make it a goal to talk personally to every Webelo and their parents
to see just what their intentions are after Cub Scouting, and invite them to
join your Troop! Now is the time for Scoutmasters to be communicating with Cub
Packs about crossovers! Cub Leaders can also play a roll by encouraging their
boys and parents to give Boy Scouting a try. The best relationship is one that
lasts all year with joint activities over a long period of time to form a
familiarity with the Boy Scout Troop that the boys will move into. Earn the
F.O. Belzer Award by crossing over 75% of the 2nd year Webelos! If
there are any questions concerning Webelos transition, please feel free to
give Leslie Anderson or Megan Boots a call at the Scout Office at
765-288-0223. Family Friends of Scouting
