Leader, Assistant Senior Patrol Leader, Patrol Leaders, Troop Guide,
Scoutmaster, and Assistant Scoutmaster.

Quartermaster
1. At the start of his term (July or January) he conducts an inventory of all Troop
equipment and gives it to the Outing Committee Chairman, so that the Troop
can be informed about the equipment available for the Scouts to use. He also
does an inspection of the Troop trailer, reports on its condition to the Outing
Committee Chairman, and cleans the trailer if necessary.
2. When a Scout or a Patrol requests to use a piece of Troop equipment, he
provides the equipment, keeping a record of the transaction. He receives the
equipment from the Scout or Patrol after its use, checks its condition, cleans or
repairs it if necessary, and stores it.
3. At the end of his term (December or June) he repeats the inspection of the
Troop trailer and the inventory of equipment, checking it against his original
inventory. He provides a final list of Troop equipment to the incoming
quartermaster.
4. He works with the Outing Committee Chairman to suggest which items of
equipment the Troop needs to purchase, either as new equipment or as
replacement for damaged equipment.
Instructors (4-6)
1. The leadership position of Instructor is important to the Troop and will be
beneficial for each Scout. Besides receiving leadership credit, it provides a
great opportunity to strengthen your public speaking and teaching skills.
2. Instructors will be asked to prepare one to two demonstrations during their term
and assist with others. These should not be lectures. They should be
demonstrations. Each instructor must gather the necessary equipment
necessary and bring it to the meeting.
3. Listed below are a few guidelines for each demonstration:
Speak more slowly, loudly, and clearly. Take command of your subject
and your audience. Make eye contact with people in the audience!
Instructors and other leaders will need to help each other on these
demonstrations. The primary instructor should ask one or more of the
others to help him.
