Program Features

Why reinvent the wheel when the BSA already provides you with a guide to running high quality Troop Meetings?  Well, there are several reasons where you can create an even more exciting program, but the BSA's step by step guides are a GREAT place to start. 

Program Features consists of 48 themed modules to help make program planning easier for troop leaders. The mix of topics—outdoor, sports, health and safety, citizenship and personal development, STEM, and arts and hobbies—provide the kind of variety, adventure, and increasing challenge every unit needs to keep members coming back while also facilitating advancement. The three volume set is available from the Supply Division here.
