How many is too many counselors?

[ghermanno]

Scouters,

 

As has been posted, the MBC's are a DISTRICT asset. They must be approved by the COUNCIL Advancement Chair (can be delegated and ussualy is). As a DAC, I strongly reccomend to the MBC applicants, while taking the required MBC course, that they do NOT sign up for Troop only. I wish the MBC application did NOT have that option. I also feel that the Troop should be charged for MBC's that select Troop Only. If they are to be a Troop asset only, the Troop should fund them.

 

Bearshark: Have the young lady apply directly to the Scout Office in your arrea. There is no charge to the applicant for MBC and no charge for the Troop.

 

YiS,

Who in this unit assigns the MB Counselor?

 

Let me give you a hint for Ed's question: It should be the Scoutmaster! See the current edition of Requirements. It's part of his ongoing mentorship responsibilities to the youth members.
