“Our Tomorrow”
As you review your copy
of
the 2013-2017
Strategic Plan, know this
is a process-driven plan,
geared toward bridging
the gap between our
honored past and our
dynamic future. But this
plan is only a roadmap as
good as you and your
efforts in using it.
Our vision is clear and
our mission has not
changed. It is up to each
of us to ensure our next
100 years of Scouting are
as relevant in helping
define the fabric of
American culture as our
last century. This is our
challenge and this is our
plan.

The Growth Mission of the Great Trail Council, BSA
A BSA local council is a voluntary association
of citizens, including representatives of
organizations chartered by the Boy Scouts of
America, to promote the Scouting program
within a geographical area.
It is the council’s responsibility to provide
leadership and supervision for all program
activities within the territory covered by its
charter in such a manner as to ensure compliance
with provisions of the Charter and Bylaws of the
Boy Scouts of America and the Rules and
Regulations of the Boy Scouts of America.
The local council is an administrative
organization charged with fulfilling the purpose
of the movement. Scouting is a volunteer
movement that operates with professional
guidance. This plan divides the administration
of Scouting into workable segments in terms of
geography, volunteer personnel, finance, and
professional guidance.
Four major functions help a council deliver the
Scouting program: membership/relationships,
finance, program, and unit service. These four
functions and all other responsibilities are
accomplished in each council in a manner that is
influenced by local conditions and
circumstances. How a council organizes to carry
out and sustain this plan in the most efficient
way is determined by its size, the resources
available, its present structure, and other local
factors.
Membership/Relationships: Making
Scouting Available
to All Youth
Local councils are chartered to serve
community organizations and involve an
increasing number of youth in a quality
program of Cub Scouting, Boy Scouting,
Varsity Scouting, Sea Scouting, and
Venturing.
Council membership growth occurs in five
ways, and all are needed for healthy
growth:
1. Organizing new units
2. Recruiting new members to existing
units
3. Guiding program transition
4. Stopping dropped units
5. Increasing tenure - more youth
reregistered during unit charter renewal
What is Scouting’s Journey to Excellence?
Scouting’s Journey to Excellence is the performance and recognition
program for councils, districts and units to measure their performance
against the BSA’s standards of excellence. The goal is to align units,
districts, and council performance to maximize results in key
performance areas that are directly related to producing a successful,
growing, and sustainable Scouting program (such as membership
retention, financial strength, camping, and advancement).
What is its Purpose?
•
Encourage and reward success in districts, councils, and units.
•
Measure performance versus process.
•
Achieve Scouting’s mission of serving more youth with a higherquality program.

The purpose of the Boy Scouts of America – incorporated on February 8,
1910, and chartered by Congress in 1916 – is to provide an educational
program for boys and young adults to build character, to train in the
responsibilities of participating citizenship, and to develop personal
fitness.
The Mission of the Boy Scouts of America is to prepare young people to
make ethical choices over their lifetimes by instilling in them the values of
the Scout Oath and Law.
Community-based organizations receive national charters to use the
Scouting program as a part of their own youth work. These groups, which
have goals compatible with those of the BSA, include religious,
educational, civic, fraternal, business, and labor organizations;
governmental bodies; corporations; professional associations; and citizen’s
groups.
Tiger Cubs - BSA - A program for 1st grade boys and their adult partners
that stresses shared leadership, learning about the community and family
understanding. Each boy-adult team meets for Tiger Cub den activities
and meetings on a weekly and monthly basis.
Cub Scouting - A family and home-centered program for boys in the 2nd
through 5th grades. Fourth and fifth graders are called Webelos Scouts and
participate in more advanced activities that begin to prepare them to
become Boy Scouts. Cub Scouting’s emphasis is on quality program at
the local level where boys and families are involved in weekly den
meetings and monthly pack meetings.
Boy Scouting - A program for boy’s ages 11 through 17 designed to
achieve the aims of Scouting through an extensive outdoor program and
peer group leadership with the counsel of an adult Scoutmaster.
Varsity Scouting - An active, exciting program for young men 14
through 17 built around five program fields of emphasis:
advancement, high adventure, personal development, service and
special programs and events.
Venturing - A career and recreational-based program for young
men and women who are 14 through 20 years of age that provides
experiences through exciting and meaningful activities that help
youth pursue their special interests, grow, develop leadership skills
and become good citizens.
Exploring - A career-based education program that provides young
men and women age 14 through 20 with hands-on experiences in
the specific career fields of firefighting, law enforcement, and
government service.
Special Needs Scouting - Specialized Scouting programs for
children with special physical and mental challenges. Specialized
training for parents and volunteer Scouting leaders is also a part of
this program’s mission.

programs to serve children in low-income, community centers of
the council’s service area.
The Great
Trail Council

Great Trail Council encompasses Summit, Medina, Portage and
Northern Wayne Counties in Northeast Ohio.
Headquartered in the Firestone Scout Service Center in Akron,
Ohio, the council employs 11 career professional staff members
responsible for providing service to the almost 5,000 volunteer
leaders who provide direct program to youth.
Contained within the Scout Service Center, the council operates a
complete Scout Shop national supply distribution retail store for
service to its youth and adult members; offers training and

Harris Survey Finds Scouting Builds
Values, Self-Worth
Staying away from drugs, building self-confidence, helping at home, and a strong
sense of self-worth and ethical values are all results tied directly to participating in
the programs of the Boy Scouts of America, according to a Harris Interactive
study.
The object of the study, called A Year in the Life of a Cub Scout…Boy Scout…
Venturer, was to determine specific benefits from participating in the Boy Scouts,
the largest youth development organization in the world.
When we continue to hear about troubles with young people from violence to
drugs to gangs, this study is a call to action to youths and parents to get involved
in Scouting. The study shows that Scouting helps turn our young people into
better human beings.
Some key findings from the Harris study include:
95% of parents believe their Cub Scouts learned moral and ethical values in
the program.
96% of parents believe their Cub Scouts learned how to get along with others.
89% of parents believe their Cub Scouts learned the value of staying away
from drugs.
84% of parents believe their Cub Scouts learned the value of helping at home.
88% of Boy Scouts said that Scouting taught them skills they would not have
learned elsewhere.
85% of Boy Scouts believe that Scouting will help them get a good job.
83% of Boy Scouts said that Scouting will help them get into college.
78% of Boy Scouts said that being a Scout made them feel more selfconfident.
90% of Venturers said the program helped them prepare for their futures.
90% of Venturers said Venturing had given them chances to do things and go
place they would not otherwise have experienced.
In the study, Boy Scouts themselves strongly suggested that the organization’s
core values of religious faith, personal integrity, and patriotism are conveyed in
the program. A strong majority (74%) agreed that “Scouting helps me tell the
difference between right and wrong.”
The study, which surveyed a national random selection of 3,000 individuals,
included parents and members of Cub Scouting, Boy Scouting, and Venturing.
It is a follow-up to the study The Values of Men and Boys in America, which
Harris Interactive previously conducted for the Boy Scouts of America.
“I am proud that he is a Scout,” the mother of a 15-year-old told researchers. “It
is the only activity that promotes community service projects and thinking of
others before yourself.”
The Boy Scouts of America program includes Tiger Cubs, for first-grade boys;
Cub Scouting, for boys in second through fifth grades; Boy Scouting, for boys
11 through 17 years old; and Venturing, our adventure program for young men
and women aged 14 through 20.
There are almost 300 local Scouting councils across the country.
