Resources: Report to the State

A "Report to the State" should be presented each year to the governor or other ranking elected official to highlight and share the benefits Scouting provides your state. It provides an opportunity to build the Scouting brand and image as well as increase the awareness and visibility of Scoutingšs service. Within our Scouting membership, the report to the state will provide a source of pride and morale boost.

The documents below are provided to help you develop, plan, and execute your annual Report to the State, its presentation, and other surrounding events.
