Here's an idea that is being discussed as a possible agenda item for the national conference: rolling memberships.
Rolling memberships would allow memberships to extend for a year from the date of registration. The October 1st membership year concept would no longer exist. This proposal supports the idea that members would always get a full calendar year membership for the fee.
What do you think? Is this a good idea? Why, or why not? Thanks for your input!
I think that's a great idea! the scout gets a full calendar year membership- more for their money, and we (the leaders) don't have to scramble quite so much at the beginning of the next school year-when there is so much other paperwork that parents are trying to keep up with- to make sure everyone's registration is in before Oct 1st.
