So is Bear Grylls available? -
It doesn't matter if they were inflated last year. If they were inflated every year, it would allow apples to apples comparison. You wouldn't want to compare March to December between 2 years as it wouldn't be apples to apples. -
I think that was for actually making up fake memberships although it predates my time. This is counting charters and memberships past the end of the year through a three month grace period that extends into March. They include them in the membership tally they publicize on or around Jan. 1. They didn't publicize a membership total in January of this year, 2024, though so even with that scheme, as the 11/23 numbers showed, it must have been a decline. Under the new registration scheme, SA will now allow themselves to count expired memberships as pending for six months while they continue to send renewal notices. -
@yknot......Numbers from 12/23 were inflated, as they are end of year in every report that the BSA issues in early January. Didn't we fire professionals in the past for padding numbers with phantom registrations? -
@qwazse Yep I have done the PA course. It is also used by any adult doing anything with youth including Priests and School Teachers as a condition of employment. I agree listening to "experts" drone on and then being "tested " with obvious questions and answers so you pass doesn't make anyone "competent"
