Current Scouts should also visit My.Scouting.org to update their contact information and to confirm their renewal date or to create an account. National Dues will be paid on the renewal date.
NOTE: Youth Protection Training - All Trusted Adults and any other adult who attend Scouting Activities must log in to My.Scouting.com to complete this training. A Trusted Adult must attend all activities, except for Webelos and AOL weekly Meetings (but Trusted Adults are encouraged to attend with their Webelos and AOLs).

Please complete the medical forms for AT LEAST the Scout and the Trusted Adult(s) who will accompany them to activities.
NOTE: Medical Forms need to be completed for each person who attends the Scouting Activity (i.e., the Scout, the trust adults, siblings, and other family members and friends). If you plan to have other family or friends attending campouts or activities, medical forms for those individuals should be submitted at least three weeks prior to the event attended.
STEP 4: Family Talent Forms
STEP 4: Family Talent Forms
Most Families have more to give then they initially think. So we require that each Trusted Adult provide a complete Family Talent Survey (linked) so that we fill up our Pack with quality volunteer content.

ADULTS: Parents are not required to purchase the Tan and Green Uniforms unless they hold a Volunteer Leadership position as Committee Member or Chair, Charter Representative, Cubmaster, Den Leader, or any assistant level leader. The adult uniform is similar to the Arrow of Light or Troop level uniforms, except that Volunteers should (though not required) have the navy blue and yellow piping cub scouting neckerchief for Pack Meetings and when attending any Flag Ceremony. These can be purchased at the Scout Shop and Leadership has a number of them available in inventory.
UNIFORM & BOOKS - Need to clean out your Scout's closet? We will be collecting gently used Scout uniforms, accessories, and books during Join Night to share with new and growing Scouts.
Shop In Person Uniforms
Shop In Person Uniforms
The Scout Shop is the closest in-person store for all your Scouting apparrel and other needs. It is a great place to get the feel for all the items to put your best fit forward.
UNIFORMS: You may purchase used uniforms at many other places as well. The Pack attempts to have a gear swap during the beginning of the year to help you find the items you are looking for.
