Required Training
- Youth Protection training is required for all BSA registered volunteers and is a joining requirement.
- Youth Protection training must be taken every two years. If a volunteer’s Youth Protection training record is not current at the time of recharter, the volunteer will not be re-registered.
- It should be taken under your leader login in my.scouting.org
- St. Matthew the Apostle Catholic Parish believes that our children are the most important gifts God has entrusted to us, and we are committed to the protection and safety of all children. In compliance with the Safe Environment Program of the Diocese of Columbus, all volunteers, 18 years of age and older, who have “care, custody or control,” or regular supervised or unsupervised access to children must complete the following procedures prior to volunteering: https://www.stmatthew.net/protecting-gods-children
Preparing for a Den Meeting
Before you conduct a den meeting, complete the online training for Den Leader found at my.scouting.org.
To prepare for a den meeting simply identify a Cub Scout Adventure that you want to complete. Adventures are found in each of the grade-specific handbooks. It is recommended that you focus on the required Adventures first.
If this is your first den meeting for the year with new and returning Cub Scouts, the Bobcat Adventure is designed to be done as your first required Adventure.
Once you have chosen the Adventure to work on for your den meeting review the webpage for that Adventure. You can get to it by scanning the QR code in the Cub Scout handbook or by following the links below.
