A Day in the Life

See what a typical Day in the Life of a Professional Scouter is like.

What do professionals in Scouting do every day? The responsibilities are as broad as the tasks are varied and no two days are the same for a typical Scouting district executive. No matter where they work, in the city, the suburbs or the countryside, one thing is for certain—this is anything but a "cubicle" job.

Our field staff are typically found in the community, not behind a desk. The job of the professional Scouter is to inspire, recruit, train, and support the BSA's adult volunteer's. In addition, they work with community leaders to rally public support for Scouting.
