REVIEW YOUR RECORDS IN SCOUTBOOK

SCOUTS, Now is the time to check your records in Scoutbook  If you don’t have access to Scoutbook, please ask your parents to grant you access.  You can see your BSA ID #, rank, completed merit badges, leadership position, patrol, contact information (parents, address, phone number), to name a few details in your record.  It is good to check this information during your scout journey so that you are familiar with these records (and the records are correct) when you start work towards Eagle.  Questions?  Please reach out to the Advancement Chair.

CHECK TO SEE IF YOUR SCOUT BROUGHT ANY TROOP CAMPING EQUIPMENT HOME AFTER LAST WEEKEND'S OUTING. If yes, please help them clean and return to the Troop Scout Quartermaster during an upcoming Troop Meeting.
