In order to make sure the troop is run effectively by the youth, and to help Scouts grow and take on more responsibility a number of jobs have been established as necessary for the proper functioning of a troop. If you (or your Scout) have accepted one of these roles within the troop, you can get an overview of the position as well as brief video introduction to the position.
