ScoutConnect: A New Connected Technology Experience for Scouting America
A More Connected Future for Scouts, Families and Volunteers: Scouting America is continuing its transition to ScoutConnect, a new, unified technology experience designed to make Scouting easier to access, easier to manage and more connected for Scouts, families, volunteers, units and councils.
A New, Simpler Renewal Cycle for All Members
Scouting America announced an important change at the 2026 National Annual Meeting that will simplify the membership and unit renewal process nationwide. By February 2028, all members and all units will have a single, common renewal month of February. This change is in response to feedback from unit leaders and other Scouters who asked for a simpler, more consistent renewal experience.
