Scouts BSA Troop Quartermaster Position

One of the most taken-for-granted youth positions in a troop is the Quartermaster. The Quartermaster team should be developed to maintain the troop's equipment and also work with an Assistant Scoutmaster and an appointed person from the Troop Committee. All too often it is taken for granted that one youth can actually do the job alone. The Assistant Scoutmaster should have a team of youth in charge of this all-important position. The Quartermaster Team also needs to keep good records and know the condition of the equipment that they are in charge of. The adult leadership needs to understand that Quartermasters are critical to the success of the unit.
