Description:
The Green Crew is an award-winning, youth-led conservation and environmental leadership program based in Bloomington, MN. Our leadership team operates as Venture Crew 3111, and we are seeking Adult Advisors with a background in Scouting who are willing to support the backend operations of our Venture unit.
This role is ideal for former or current Scoutmasters, Assistant Scoutmasters, Venture Advisors, committee members, or Scouters who understand how youth-led units work—and who enjoy helping things run smoothly behind the scenes.
This is not a role about running meetings or directing youth leaders. It’s about providing structure, continuity, and operational support so youth can lead with confidence and focus on conservation and leadership.
Your Role:
-
Support the backend operations of Venture Crew 3111
-
Assist with logistics such as scheduling, permissions, advancement records, and compliance
-
Provide guidance on Scouting processes, policies, and best practices
-
Help maintain continuity as youth leadership rotates and grows
-
Serve as a trusted adult resource to the Green Crew leadership team and primary advisors
Why This Role Matters:
-
Strong youth leadership depends on solid adult support systems
-
Your Scouting experience helps ensure programs are safe, compliant, and sustainable
-
You’ll enable youth to focus on leadership, service, and conservation—not paperwork
-
This is a meaningful way to stay connected to Scouting values while supporting an innovative, youth-led conservation program
You’ll Be a Great Fit If…
-
You have experience in Scouting (BSA, Venture, Sea Scouts, or related roles)
-
You believe deeply in youth-led leadership models
-
You enjoy organization, continuity, and operational problem-solving
-
You’re comfortable supporting from the background rather than being front-and-center
Time Commitment:
Approximately 2–4 hours per month, with flexibility depending on the season and needs of the unit.
Location:
Bloomington, MN and surrounding communities. Some support can be provided remotely.
