Order the parents and new leaders guide to Boy Scouting
Although the official BSA handbooks and literature should be used and followed, finding several books and training materials and reading hundreds of pages can be a daunting task. This is why we wrote and recommend using our book, Beginning Boy Scouts, to start and to supplement your Boy Scouting experience. It will help you gain a better understanding of the scouting program.
Inside this quick reference you'll learn: how to get started (for the boy, parent, and leader), about significant requirements, how to earn merit badges, to prepare for overnighters and summer camps, what to wear on the uniform, about the boy-led patrols, how to volunteer, steps to complete the Eagle, and lots more!
