2022 Charter Renewal (Recharter)
Each year, all Scouting units must update their member roster and pay fees for the coming calendar year. This process is called Charter Renewal, or โRecharter.โ We've compiled updated tools and documentation to make your rechartering process simple this fall.
The 2021 Hunter Education Course, conducted by the Virginia Department of Wildlife Resources, is scheduled for October 17th from 8:00 am to 5:00 pm at T. Brady Saunders' STEM Center. This is a required course for Scouts working to receive their hunting license. Scouts, 5th grade and up, are invited to participate in this special event free of charge.
There are several upcoming outdoor skills training opportunities coming up this fall. Battlefield District is offering BALOO and IOLS the weekend of October8th - 10th at Camp T. Brady Saunders. Huguenot Trail District will also host BALOO and IOLS training the weekend of October 23rd - 24th at Albright Scout Reservation.
The Guide to Safe Scouting has been revised for 2021, and BSA has made the new document available on their website. Please view the updated guide using the link below and replace any printed, saved, or published copies of previous publications.
