Easy to Recruit "New Member Coordinators"
The New Member Coordinator (NMC) is a Cub Scout leader position created to help sustain strong unit membership by welcoming and connecting with new Scouts and their families, serving as a welcoming ambassador for the unit.
In general, all New Member Coordinators:
- Serve as welcoming ambassadors for the unit
- Work with the unit committee in developing and implementing the Unit Membership Plan
- Participate in New Member Coordinator training and collaborate with the district membership team.
For the month of September only – Any unit that switches an existing committee member to the specific designation of New Member Coordinator, can be done by simply sending an email request. Effective October 1st, the change in position will once again require a paper application.
We are offering this special exception because we recognize another important function that the New Member Coordinator. The NMC also has the ability to send invitations via the on-line registration’s Membership Manager. And more importantly, can monitor when new online registrations are being submitted to the pack or troop. They can’t approve the applications, but they can alert the unit leader, committee chair, or charter representative that there are applications that need to be approved. This is especially helpful during the fast and furious fall recruiting season.
This opportunity only applies to existing Committee Members. Brand new leaders need to submit the standard adult application, CORI application w/photo ID, and must take the Youth Protection Training.
