Handbook for new leaders--esp. Tigers?

[SeattlePioneer]

drmbear,

 

I think your objection is reasonable, but I don't think it's reasonable to wait around for weeks or months to get the program started.

 

If the Tiger Cub Den Leader is trained in how the program is upposed to work, he has as good a chance as anyone else of expecting parents to help the way they should.

 

To me it is ESSENTIAL that new Tiger Cub Dens get started as soon as practical. I see WAY too many packs fail to get a Tiger Cub Den started, and when that happens the families that have joined drop out in a hurry, which can damage the whole program and make it VERY difficult to get things started again.

 

So my bias is 1) Get things started right away 2) identify your new Tiger Cub Den Leader right away. Get your Tiger Cub Den Leader Trained right away. Get the program meeting and working and it will then probably work things out pretty well.

 

That is my aim, anyway. Making it happen can be a challenge.
