Are you a leader trying to find the best way to plan and organize your troop? I highly recommend the Scout Leader Troop Planner Packet from the IamStrawJenBerry Etsy store.
The best person to put together a packet like this is someone who has been where you are, struggled with the organization portion of being a leader. Her name is Jen, and I had the opportunity to talk to her about this project. I asked her to share more about the Scout Leader Troop Planner Packet and share her amazing blog full of a pile of freebies to get you started as well.
Jen says, “One of the challenges I had as a new leader was organization. I found that even though my troop had less than ten girls, I still needed to manage paperwork and information for each girl. Like a teacher, on a smaller scale. I knew that I needed something separate from my personal and work planners, one that I could put in a binder and grab when I needed it. It took over two years for me to develop the leader planner. It truly is a labor of love.
The planner is a fillable PDF that includes everything you need to plan your troop year in a colorful, fun format. It all starts with a personalized cover that includes your name, troop number (optional) or year. You’ll never have to search for information again because it will be all in one place. The planner contains your calendar, meeting planners, rosters and badge trackers in one safe place for when you need it. Once you assemble your binder you can take it to the store and make your awards purchases too. If you have no idea where to start this Leader Planner will get you and your troop organized quick! “
The basic planner includes all of the above. Add-ons are available at a special discounted rate with the purchase of the planner:
The entire Scout Leader Troop Planner Packet is almost 30 pages with the cover. Add in freebies from the resources section of strawjenberry.com and you will have all the tools to plan an organized troop year. Free resources include: Parent Handbook, Troop Calendar, and other printables. Get yours planner for your troop now
These pages are designed to be printed on standard letter 8.5″ x 11″ paper. The files are in PDF format which opens and prints best using Adobe Reader. Pages can be printed at home or professionally bound at your nearest office supply store. Because they are standard letter size, they work with three ring binders, punched within disc bound notebooks or spiral bound notebook style. I highly recommend the Avery 3 ring binder from Amazon because it has a nice plastic sleeve in front to put the cover of your planner and also there are a variety of colors to choose from.
Beyond planning meetings, Jen helps plan parties too! This is the Ultimate Party Kit!
Almost everything you need to plan your troop celebration is included in this kit and can be printed at home or through your local office supply store or printer. It all starts with a personalized troop banner (two options to choose from) that includes your troop number. From there you have many different supplies to create the labels, stickers and decorations that you need.
The full color party kit includes:
The sky is the limit for how you can use all of these DIY elements to create the ultimate party. All items are included and have the bright and cheerful design color scheme. Get now for any party, ceremony or event you are planning for your troop.
Beyond this book Etsy is full of other amazing shops that also focus on making being a leader so much easier. So be sure to stop over to Etsy and search scouts for more great ideas.
