For over two years I have been placing Scouting related videos on Youtube. It has been interesting to see which videos have become somewhat popular, and which ones have not. Here is a list of the “ten most watched” videos I have placed on Youtube that were produced by the BSA and/or its councils:
1) The Boy Scout Zone Video

It’s interesting to see that the BSA make their own TV commercials. Are these shown on national TV to ensure that the greatest possible amount of people see them?
In the UK we tent to rely on press releases and the media covering major events like the Centenary of Scouting last year.
Keep up the good work
