Recharter due for returning Scouts!

Hey pack! We’ve been talking about recharter for the past several meetings. The vast majority of returning scouts still have not completed the recharter process. Please look through your emails and find the email with the subject line “Your BSA Membership is up for renewal” and follow the link. You can also log into my.scouting.org and renew that way as well. We have found that some adults are separated from their scouts. If this has happened to you, or you have any issues renewing, please contact us at etacpack359@gmail.com, and we can guide you through the process. In addition, we received an email yesterday stating that starting tomorrow (January 1, 2025), council insurance fees are going up $15. If you haven’t paid the registration renewal…
