Parents in Scouting: A Family Affair
As a parent, you are a part of Scouting as much as your child. In fact, the role of a parent in Scouting often determines the child's success in the program. At home, you can support your child's activities by discussing weekly Group meetings, involving the family in Scouting events, and promoting the Scouting name. The family is the greatest influence in a young person's life, and you positive attitude will ensure your child gets the most out of Scouting.
In addition to the support given at home, parents can enhance their child's Scouting experience by volunteering for the local Scout Group. We have a terrific group of peoploe and many Scout House resource materials to help you get started. Whether for one-time events or for on-going programs, we invite you to add your talents and interests to the Scouting Family so that together we may develop the best possible program for your child.
How Scouting works at the local level
Scouting operates most successfully in small community or partner-based Groups. As of July 1996 in the Greater Toronto Region there were 230 such "Groups". Our Group currently conducts one of the five Scouting programs (Beavers, Cubs, Scouts, Venturers or Rovers), Scouts. The "Group Committee" is administered by volunteers, usually parents. Leaders, who are also volunteers, are directly accountable to this Group Committee. In the 110th's case, Leaders sit on the Group Committee. The 110th invites anyone to come and join or observe the Group Committee. Meetings are held on the Second Tuesday of every month 7- 8:00 p.m.
A Group Committee is also responsible for keeping in touch with you, registering your youth, and maintaining a high quality of leadership.
Your questions or concerns about the program should first be directed to your Leader. Then if necessary, contact your Group Committee and finally, your Greater Toronto Regional Office.
