Scoutbook Signups

When signing up for an event, the big yellow button in the middle of the page signs up the logged in user only.  This has resulted in many parents registering themselves to go camping instead of their scout.  To fix this expand the ‘My Youth Connections’ drop down and RSVP your scout accordingly.

Troop Requirement

If you will be camping overnight with the troop, you MUST have a background check via Scouts BSA.  This is easily accomplished by registering to become a ‘Scout Reserve’.  Note: Merit Badge Counselor is no longer acceptable.  The required position code is 91.  The Troop will reimburse all fees.
