Scout Transfer Trouble


VetScout

Recommended Posts

We have recently formed a new Troop. A Scout from another Troop wants to transfer in to the new Troop. The boy has been continuously disruptive both in Scouting activities and at scool (and his parents aren't much bettr.

 

My question is: Do we have an option to reject a transfer application for scouts an/or adult volunteer?

Sure you do. Every youth membership must be acceped by the charter organization and have the Scoutmaster's signature, without it he cannot join.

 

Now the more important question. Have you met with the scout and his family yet? Why does he want to join? does he understand the promise he must take to obey the Scout Oath and Law. Is he preapred to show better behavior and judgement than he has gained a reputation for.

 

Once he joins if his behavior is a danger to himself or others, or if he is disruptive to the program, the committee can choose to revoke his membership.
