Adult Volunteer Roles and Responsibilities
From SuperTroop 197
As a volunteer organization, our troop’s success is tied directly to parent and other adult involvement. There are many ways you can serve – large and small!
All volunteers follow the spirit and specific requirements of BSA’s Youth Protection protocols, embrace our boy-led troop model, and adhere to the BSA Scouter Code of Conduct. Numerous in-person and online training courses are available for depending on how much or how little you would like to be involved. Many parents start volunteering when their son joins the troop and then find the experience so rewarding they continue to volunteer many years after their Scout has aged out!
