Group Committee Portfolios

Aside from the actual youth program. There is alot of work that needs to be done to have a successful Scout Group.

There are many tasks and responsibilities that vary from a few hours to large complex issues. Not every family has to wear a uniform to say that they are involved with their child's Scouting experience.

We at the 110th ask that every family help their youth have a strong, positive experience and help your Group Committee with the many responsibilies necessary to run a successful Scout Group.

Please review the brief descriptions of portfolios. If you see anything that interests you, please contact us and let us know that you would be interested in helping out. You should pick something that you find interesting. Adults are here to have fun, just as much as the youth.

Don't hestitate to drop us a line and talk about how you can support your Scout Group.
