Join us for the Cub Scout Leader Expo on Oct 17th!
We use Scoutbook to track advancement and communicate Scout progress.
Parents and guardians are encouraged to log in regularly to review advancement status and identify any incomplete requirements. Requirements completed at home may be marked as “Completed” by a parent, which highlights the item for leader review and approval.
Scoutbook is accessible via the web or app. An app is available on both the Apple and Android stores. Search for "Scouting" in the app store or click the icons to be directed to the app listing.
Every parent or guardian who connects to a Scout in Scoutbook Plus needs a Scouting America account with a unique email address.
The parent or guardian who completed the Scout’s registration should already have an account connected to the Scout. Other parents or guardians should follow the steps below to create an account and establish the appropriate relationship.
