Study on Recruitment- Unit Survey
Hello,
We are conducting a study on the methods used to promote scouting at the local level and factors that influence the success of these methods. We would appreciate your assistance in taking this survey. The intent of this study is to identify practices that effectively promote scouting to the general public. The information gathered will NOT be used as an "Evaluation" of any particular local unit, but will be compiled with other responses into a summary report and our results will be shared with scout leaders responsible for creating these type of promotions. Thank you in advance for your time.

Respectfully Yours,
The Quinnipiac District Membership Committee
Connecticut Yankee Council- BSA
