The committee decided we are going to change it up this year. We are asking everyone to pay your national recharter dues online. This is due to all the varying renewal dates we have for our scouts. You all should have received emails from Scouting America about you and/or your scouts renewal is upcoming. There are a large number of us who expire 3/31/26. You can access the renewal by logging into https://my.scouting.org/ and pay the fee. The Troop will also have dues separate from the national fee. We will determine that cost at our committee meeting in February. Feel free to reach out to Mr. Cavalline if you have any questions.   CLICK HERE TO ACCESS YOUR MEMBERSHIP RENEWAL Need a Merit Badge Counselor? Counselor lists are now available!
