Be on the lookout for opportunities to increase your unit REACH. We talked about this and more in our “Spring into Fall Membership Webinar”. If you missed it, you can find the slides, resources and recording [on our website](https://baltimorebsa.org/membership/). May is also a great time to think about how we RETAIN youth. We know that Cub Scouts who are engaged over the summer come back in the Fall. Our [Summer Passport](https://baltimorebsa.org/cubpassport/) program has a new patch and a simplified reporting method. It is FREE to participate in the Cub Scout Summer Passport program so download and share with the families in your Pack! Reach out to your [District Executive](https://baltimorebsa.org/about/contact/), District Membership Chair or Unit Commissioner if you would like additional support on growing membership in your unit. Membership Webinar Resources Cub Scout Summer Passport Maximizing Online Resources Unit Pins Leads and Applications Unit Pins allow new people to find your unit. It is critical to keep them updated. Key 3 Members of each unit can update them through their [my.scouting](https://my.scouting.org/) account. [Updating Unit Pins](https://www.scouting.org/wp-content/uploads/2020/05/Be-A-Scout-Pin-Set-up.pdf) Online applications are an efficient way for both youth and adults to join the unit. The online application manager can be customized to include information about unit fees and procedures, allowing units to collect national registration fees and advise members of how to submit any unit dues. Members show up on your roster within one business day of final approval.
