Organizing a Ship

Steps to Organizing a Ship

Each year the Boy Scouts of America requests the support of chartered organizations such as business, industrial, military, professional, religious, service, and other community organizations in operating Sea Scout ships.

Chartered organizations provide the program help for Sea Scout ship meetings, activities, and trips through caring adult leaders.

Organizing Sea Scout ships (groups) in your organization is easy!

Just follow these five successful steps:

  1. Secure commitment from the chief executive officer.
  2. CEO calls a briefing meeting of administrative or management staff.
  3. BSA Venturing representative conducts program planning/training meetings for selected staff.
  4. Mail student invitations and follow up by telephone.
  5. Confirm arrangements and follow the suggested First-nighter (first meeting) agenda.
