Connect with Scouting this February with Celebrate Scouting! Families are invited to connect at local celebration events, but also at your unit celebration! At your unit celebration, a Celebration Coordinator will recognize your unit for 2018 accomplishments and give you FREE pizzas from Papa John's to use at an upcoming meeting.

Invest in Scouting this February too! For every $50 you invest in Scouting, your Scout will receive a $5 coupon to use for 2019 summer camp! Encourage 100% of your families to participate in Celebrate Scouting!

Scouts, BSA - It's Here!
The launch of Scouts, BSA is here!

Have girls interested in joining? Troops are forming at the Tusc County YMCA , Dover UMC , and in Malvern.

Contact Chip Teague to get information!
UPDATE: Membership Cards
Effective January 1, 2019, unit key 3's have access to view and print their charter certificate and membership cards in my.scouting.org. Because of this change, the Buckeye Council will no longer be printing membership cards and charter certificates effective January 1, 2019.

This “self-service” functionality allows volunteers to print membership cards and the unit charter certificate in a timely manner and enhances the onboarding experience for new youth and adults.
Get your JTE ribbon at your Unit Celebration!
JTE is super important for both your unit and the district. It’s a great indicator to see where your strengths and weaknesses are as a unit. You will be recognized with a certificate and a JTE ribbon at your unit celebration - make sure to turn your form in to receive the recognition if you didn't turn it in yet!
