Recently the Innovation and Strategy Group conducted a survey to determine the level of interest in various high adventure activities. The survey was nationwide in scope and the respondents were 50.3% male and 49.7% female. Those responding to the survey were between the ages of 7 and 19 and lived, in almost equal parts, in each of the regions of the country. The question before them was what activities do you like or would you like to participate in?
Four of the top choices by youth on this survey are currently on the list of unauthorized activities in the, “Guide to Safe Scouting”. Each of these four choices is being vetted independently on the Innovation Engine to see what you think about each idea separately.
This idea is to explore the possibility of Paintball as a sanctioned activity. If accepted, would this idea help attract and retain youth in the program?
