Why hasn’t the overall Cub Scout membership in the Central Region and Bay Lakes Council increased as a result of the Fast Tracks pilot?
There are two main reasons the overall number of Cub Scouts did not increase in the Bay Lakes Council or in the Central Region: • The percentage of dens involved in the pilot in any one council, while sufficient for pilot purposes, was too small for the positive results to be reflected in overall membership for the councils. • In 2005, the Bay Lakes pilot involved 20 dens, or approximately 1 percent of the dens in the council. By 2006, the pilot was expanded to 178 dens, or approximately 11 percent of the dens in the council. • In 2007, 1,117 dens, or approximately 2 percent of the dens in councils in the Central Region, participated in the pilot. • Cub Scout TAY in the Bay Lakes Council and Central Region declined during the time period of the pilot study. However, from 2005 to 2007, Bay Lakes increased its Cub Scout density from 24.4 percent in 2005 to 25.5 percent in 2007.
