It’s time to renew your unit for 2025! This year brings a simplified approach to the renewal process, making it more straightforward than ever. As a reminder, Scouts and adults now renew individually, separate from the unit. For your unit renewal, the primary tasks include confirming leader positions and affirming that your unit will remain active in 2025. The process should take only a few minutes to complete.
To support these new procedures, the National Council has created a variety of resources to guide you through individual and unit renewals. You can explore the full collection of tools at https://www.scouting.org/resources/unit-and-membership-renewal/. Key resources include:
- Unit Processing Member Renewals
- Unit Processing Unit Renewal
- Parent Processing a Youth Renewal
- Individuals Processing Their Renewal
In addition to completing the unit renewal online, your unit will need to submit the following documents:
- Signed Annual Charter Agreement (or equivalent, such as the Annual Council Unit Registration or UMC Affiliation Agreement)
- Background Check Affirmation Statement
This is also an excellent opportunity to update your unit’s contact information and ensure access to your unit account with the council. These forms are available here. Once completed, please scan and email the documents directly to tyler.roman@scouting.org.
We appreciate your prompt attention to this important task. Together, let’s make 2025 another great year of Scouting!
