Charter Renewal Season

2024 Unit and Membership Renewal

Please take note that starting this year and in foreseeable future, individual membership renewal and unit renewal are handled separately.

Unit Renewal is to be completed exactly one year from the last renewal. All new renewals are accessible for 2 months before your renewal expires.

Unit renewal is to be completed by a member of the Unit Key 3 (Cubmaster/ Scoutmaster, Committee Chair.) Please follow the instructions below to submit your unit renewal.

  2. Click on “Unit Renewal”
  3. Validate all unit information
  4. Review information and make necessary changes
  5. Enter your name in the signature field

Membership Renewal can be handled either by individual families or by the unit. All memberships in Scouting America are active for a 12-month cycle. If a new scout joins on October 5, 2025, their membership will run for 12 months and be up for renewal again on October 5, 2026. This will continue as that individual continues through scouting year after year with the October 5 date being when they renew for every cycle. Communicate with your unit to find out how they handle it. Please look below for detailed instructions on how you can renew your membership.

  1. Login to My.Scouting.org
  2. Select the “Notice” icon in the top right corner

  4. Review information, and select “Go To Payment”
  5. Agree to the Terms & Conditions
