Trick/Trunk or Treat Cards – Recruit on Halloween


Just when you thought you could wrap up recruiting for the Fall, there is yet another way you can help get more youth into your pack or troop. Who is going to be coming to your door for candy in a few days?  Potential Cub Scouts!  When giving them treats, why not also invite them to join Scouting?  Think about attaching a “Join Cub Scout” card on each piece of candy you hand out at your home or at the local Trunk or Treat. Click on the link below, which leads to an editable template.  You can print the cards as is or edit them with your specific pack or troop information. You may also place an order for your cards by emailing Bill SanFilippo (bill.sanfilippo@scouting.org).  You must submit your order at least one week in advance. Cards are printed on orange cardstock with black and white ink. 
Be sure to share these with all your parents and leaders. You can even do a twist on front yard camping displays by creating a scary tent set-up.  Most importantly, briefly engage youth about what Scouting has to offer and give them some means of getting more information.  This is a fun way of letting people know about your local Scouting program.
