Cub Scouts 2010 - Materials Availability

National Council has announced the following via E-mail sent to council execs and others -

Cub Scouts 2010 - Materials Availability

Development of materials to support the rollout of Cub Scouts 2010 is well under way, and we are now in a position to confirm that the leader materials and training needed to support the change in delivery method will be completed and in local council service centers between April 30 and May 7, 2010.

The resources affected include the following:

Literature:
2010-2011 Cub Scout Roundtable Guide New
Den & Pack Meeting Resource Guide (printed) New
Den & Pack Meeting Resource Guide (online*) New
Cub Scout Leader Book Revised
Webelos Leader Guide Revised

Training:
Fast Start Training (online) Revised
Position Specific Leader Training with CD (literature) Revised

As discussed previously, there will be a new version of Position Specific Leader Training which will be available online via the E-Learning Center at myscouting.org. This module is scheduled to be available 6/1/2010.

*The Den & Pack Meeting Resource Guide will be available online in two forms: a no-fee download of individual den and pack meeting plans via www.scouting.orghttp://www.scouting.org/> or a for-fee purchase of the full resource via www.scoutstuff.orghttp://www.scoutstuff.org/> . Both versions will be accessible from scouting.org.

In addition, you will begin to see new covers on many of our other Cub Scout leader publications so that we have a unified look for the brand. New covers will start appearing for the following publications as the Supply Group needs additional inventory. Note, however, that the content remains the same - the new cover does not make the "old" version obsolete.

Cub Scout Leader How-To Book
Cub Scout Academics and Sports Program Guide
Cub Scout Ceremonies for Dens and Packs
BALOO - Basic Adult Leader Outdoor Orientation

And finally, please note that two elective sessions have been added to the agenda of the National Annual Meeting to support Cub Scouts 2010. The electives, titled "Our Future Begins With Cub Scouts" (E-119 and E-319) are scheduled Thursday afternoon, 5/27. Please share this information within your council and encourage your staff and volunteers to take advantage of the opportunity.
