Introducing Scouting Wire, a BSA news site tailored to you

Here’s a site that deserves an immediate promotion to your bookmarks bar.

Scouting Wire, an official BSA website offering Scouting news and updates for volunteers and professionals, launches today.

I spent some time exploring the user-friendly site, and I’m a fan. I appreciate how Scouting Wire makes it easy to find topics that interest you — and just as importantly in this age of information overload — filter out those that don’t apply to your Scouting role.

You’ll find Scouting Wire content organized into these eight categories: 

  • Activities
  • Finance
  • Fundraising
  • High Adventure
  • Leadership
  • Marketing
  • Training
  • Recruiting

You’ll also notice Scouting Wire isn’t a one-way street. The site offers plenty of chances for you to submit feedback, share ideas and ask questions.

Have a way to make Scouting Wire even better? Be sure to use the “Connect With Us” link at the top of the new site.

Sign up for the Scouting Wire weekly digest

Don’t miss out on any essential Scouting Wire content. Sign up for the weekly digest, which you can tailor to your Scouting role and topics you care about.

The BSA’s information arsenal

My blog, Scouting Newsroom, the Scouting Around blog and other official BSA sites from which you get your Scouting news aren’t going anywhere.

Scouting Wire simply adds to the BSA’s growing arsenal of tools to keep you, the BSA volunteer or professional, more informed.

We’re all working toward the same goal: Give you the information you need, when you need it.
