A FEW MEETING HINTS |
Begin on time-close on time. |
ACTION-VARIETY-PURPOSE-The Three Musketeers of all Troop activities. |
Recipe for a good meeting:
|
Boys have a thousand muscles to wiggle with and only one dozen to sit still with. That dozen gets mighty tired mighty quickly. |
Keep every moment busy. Crowd things along, and you will have no discipline problems, no uncontrolled rough-housing. |
As a general rule, allow no more than twenty minutes to any one activity. |
Plan for more than can be accomplished rather than too little. Better leave some good things undone than to have the meeting "peter out" a half hour early. |
Shift to something else before the boys tire of what they are doing. |
If the planned program doesn't work, be resourceful. Throw some out, if necessary, to suit conditions. |
Encourage members of the Troop Committee to attend regularly. When they come, have something definite for them to do. |
Keep visitors on the side lines. Most of the time visitors come to see what is happening. Don't let them interrupt the meeting. |
