We do all of our scout head counts by Patrol, and then another headcount for the adults. Patrols leaders are responsible for the headcount of scouts attending from their patrol (like for camping, buying food for their patrol). The parent coordinator is responsible for the Adults headcount.
Having the RSVP count indicate scouts per patrol, and parents per patrol would greatly ease the sorting out of this data.
Today, these numbers are broken out by “Youth Guests” and “Adult Guests”, so the feature requested would be to break out the “nn Going” into “nn Scouts going” and "nn Adults going"
eg:
46 Going + 14 Youth Guests + 8 Adult Guests = 68 Total
becomes
Going: 40 Youth + 6 Adults + 14 Youth Guests + 8 Adult Guests = 68 Total.
Further, adding patrol information would be really great… such as:
patrol1: 4 scouts / 2 adults
patrol2: 10 scouts / 1 adult
patrol3: 6 scouts / 1 adult
etc…
(NOTE: this data is available if you “print attendance sheet”, but not on the RSVP section of the event)
