Hello
My Troop recently gained a new CO, this is our 3rd since 2018. This one wants us to change our Troop design to incorporate their Org. We have a very strong identity to our design which is based on a local school/playground landmark. And that design is littered throughout our materials, paperwork, website, shirts, neckerchief, posters, banners, water bottles, you name it. Considering we have had CO turnover (not due to any fault of our own), and considering the pervasiveness of our current design I am concerned about the cost to replace all of these things if we start making a new design to incorporate the CO (and then what happens if they decide to not be a CO anymore)?
Are there any rules around this sort of thing? As in, is there a rule that prevents our scouts from becoming walking advert for our new CO in the form of Class B shirts and neckerchiefs?
I'm all for supporting the new CO, I just really like our current design. Our Troop is struggling with a leadership change right now and I'm worried that this change would be hurtful to our Troop's success. (I'm totally aware I could just raise these points with the CO and see what they say as well but wanted to see if there were any rules first so I could be fully informed).
Thanks!
