Service Unit Team Planning Ideas
Here are some great ideas to help you plan for a successful year as we go back to Girl Scouting:

Service Unit Back to Girl Scouting Rallies:  Gather troops for ice cream, old-fashioned games, swimming parties, and Juliette Low birthday celebrations.

Service ideas: Try a canned food drive or school supply train.

Service Unit Registrars need to contact their MDMs early to see about re-registration packets for troops.  Disband notices are due in early October.  Also, please check with existing troops for space availablity for new girls.

Tips for Service Unit Managers:
Have a healthy supply of peel-and-stick nametags for your meetings. New leaders need to feel a sense of connection early on. Assign them a buddy so they know who to call for questions.

  • Teach a song, craft, or game and have an opening and a closing.
  • Hand out copies of the training calendar so leaders can get their trainings scheduled early.
  • Make your meetings a warm and fun environment and remember to give leaders a reason to return! The one thing leaders need most is ideas from other leaders. Hold break-out or roundtable sessions for 20-30 minutes as the main part of your meeting.
  • The one thing that almost every Service Unit Manager said last spring in the Spring Survey is that they loved to help leaders grow. Remember - if you do a bang-up job on the front end of the year, it will make the back end easier.  Remember to delegate
