Unit and Membership Renewal
Scouting America provides an online process for member and unit renewals. The link below contains several resources to help ensure a smooth and efficient renewal experience. All units and members currently registered with Scouting America must complete this process annually.
Journey to Excellence
Scouting’s Journey to Excellence (JTE) is the BSA’s planning, performance, and recognition program designed to encourage and reward the success of our units. It is meant to encourage excellence in providing a quality program at all levels of the BSA. You can download/view the JTE Guidebook and Scorecard for your program below. If you would prefer a paper copy, please contact the Council Service Center and we will be happy to provide you with one!
Scoutbook
Scoutbook is the BSA’s online unit management tool and helps Scouts, parents and leaders track advancement and milestone achievements along the Scouting trail.
As of January 1, 2019, Scoutbook subscriptions are free to all scouting units.
Request for Certificate of Insurance
Certificates of insurance verify that the BSA and local councils have insurance for an event or activity. In most cases when Scouting and Exploring activities are held at locations other than Scout property, the location requires a certificate of insurance from the BSA. The other parties usually want to be added to the BSA general liability policy as an additional insured. Click HERE for more information on Certificates of Insurance.
Guide to Advancement
Many of your questions can be answered using the BSA Guide to Advancement which you can access below. If you have any questions, please contact your District Executive or call the Council Service Center.
Youth Protection Training
