Beginning February 1, 2019, Boy Scout Troops became Scouts BSA troops, and we welcomed our first female troop: Troop 711, chartered to Spirit of Joy Lutheran Church in Harrisburg South Dakota. We also were excited to register Elizabeth, who came in to register on February 1 as a Scouts BSA member! Scouts BSA welcomes boys and girls to gender specific troops. Requirements for advancement are the same between the male and female packs; additional information is included later in this issue of Sioux Trails. Male and female troops can be chartered by the same organization, can share a troop committee, and can meet at the same time just not with each other. Female troops are BSA s latest move to become more family oriented and family friendly. In the nearly 12 months since the entire family has been invited to participate in BSA programs, Sioux Council has welcomed over 150 families into Cub Scouts. Thank you and we love it are just a few of the comments we are hearing from around the council. BSA programs are now a one-stop opportunity for entire families to participate, learn, and have fun together pushing back just a little against the norm of families being in multiple places at the same. Additional Scouts BSA female troops are planned this spring throughout the council, in Tea, Mitchell, Pierre, Brookings, Madison, Marshall, Watertown, Vermillion, Yankton, Elk Point, and more coming to Sioux Falls. Contact your district executive to learn more and to find the female troop near you! Elizabeth H. pictured next to the Premier Scout Shop, with her completed youth application for Scouts BSA

3 Sioux Trails March/April 2019 Page 3 Scouts BSA Female Troop Reminders As female troops begin to register with the Sioux Council, the council membership committee has asked that a meeting be held between the district executive, the chartered partner and the new troop committee prior to paperwork being completed and the troop becoming official. The purpose of the meeting is to review the main points of chartering a female troop. Below are the talking points of this meeting. Many questions have been answered already, just by having this thirtysixty minute discussion! Names CANNOT use girl in front of scouts CAN use troop for girls, girl troop, etc CANNOT compare BSA to Girl Scouts CANNOT create your own recruiting materials. You must use materials from the BSA Brand Center Partners/Programs CAN use a current chartered partner for male or female troops CAN use a completely different partner for troops CAN use the current troop number for female troops, if a partner program (at a location with a male troop) Organization/Structure CAN have a male scoutmaster MUST have at least one over 21, registered, female for any activity involving female youth MUST have at least 2 registered adults, both over 21, at every activity CANNOT be scoutmaster of male and female troop.

5 Sioux Trails March/April 2019 Page 5 Sioux Council Program Planning In order to help every unit, and provide the best program possible, each district will once again be conducting the Annual Program Planning Seminar at their April Roundtable. A representative from your Unit will need be in attendance to qualify for the bonus popcorn sale commission, so we strongly recommend that your unit have a somone there to insure you get the maximum funds from the Popcorn Sale. One of the single most important things a unit can do, along with having trained leaders, is to develop an annual program calendar. This helps every parent in the unit know what will be happening in the next year and when. This is especially important to be able to give to new families when they join. Along with developing the calendar is the development of the budget to support the great program. This way every family will know what their responsibility is and why involvement in fundraisers is so important. Also keep in mind that your one-page budget and one-page calendar are due at the August Popcorn and Membership Kickoffs. 5 Rivers: April 8, 7:00 PM First United Church, Pierre, SD Buffalo Ridge: April 9, 7:00 PM Elkton Community Center Elkton, SD Prairie Hills: April 11, 7:00 PM Sioux Council Office Sioux Falls, SD Pheasant: April 11, 7:30 PM Woonsocket Community Center Woonsocket, SD North Star: April 11, 7:00 PM Webster Elementary School Webster, SD Lewis and Clark: April 11, 7:00 PM First United Methodist Church Yankton, SD

You bet! Council Popcorn Kernel Holly Hawkinson is leading the 2019 charge again and we have some great ideas to help out the districts and units. We listened to the feedback from last year and are going to focus on the nuts and bolts of being a unit chair, best practices for inventory control, timelines, etc. In addition to the procedural items we will share success stories, ways to get units pumped up, etc. We also will work on passing on information about the behind the scenes happenings with popcorn. When does the big order actually get placed? How does it ship? Who sorts it all? What CAN the council return? So what CAN a Scout do for programming after a great sale? How do we get families to understand a months worth of selling make for a years worth of not having to write another check for great programs? If you are interested in being a district or unit kernel, just have questions about what the program is all about, please don t hesitate to reach out to the Sioux Council professional in your district. If you are someone who loves the thrill of sales, seeing Scouts learn the value of hardwork and reap the benefits, we d love to hear from you!
