How Commissioners Help Webelos Transition to Boy Scouts

The Unit Commissioner can help Webelos Transition by:

a) Being a catalyst in developing good relationships between troop and pack leaders.

b) Promoting communication by scheduling a meeting of key volunteers involved in the pack and troop.

c) Helping plan a Webelos den visit to a troop meeting and other joint activities.

d) Keeping the pack and troop on schedule as plans develop for the crossover ceremony at the blue and gold banquet.

e) Attending the crossover ceremony.

f) Being sure new Scouts have completed a Boy Scout application, that they have a copy of the troop's activities, and that they know when and where the troop meets.

g) Working with the pack and troop in their charter renewal process to help ensure Webelos Scouts are moved from pack rosters to troop rosters.

h) Working with the Webelos transition chair to follow up on boys who have not yet joined a troop. Make sure they are invited to join a troop.

i) Being sure Webelos Scouts join a troop in time to prepare for Boy Scout summer camp.
