How to create eye-catching recruitment materials with customizable templates from the Brand Center

As you recruit new families to Scouting, the Brand Center is here to make your job easier than ever!

Volunteers now have access to a full library of customizable templates that make designing professional, on-brand materials quick and stress-free. Whether you need a flyer for an upcoming recruitment night, a poster to hang at your local elementary school or a social media frame to use on your troop’s Facebook, the Brand Center has your back.

How to access the new customizable templates

All the new templates are grouped in the “Logos / DIY Elements” section of the Brand Center. You can also browse the full collection in this lightbox. If you’re looking for something specific, try using the search bar with terms like “Scouts BSA editable flyer” or “Cub Scouts template.”

There are two types of templates to choose from:

1. Editable in the Brand Center: These templates (with a .wdtx file extension) allow you to edit directly in your browser. Just double-click to open, click the pencil icon to start, and add text and photos in minutes.
