Poptober Fest is Here!

October 6, 2025
UNIT RENEWAL is now open! This renewal process creates a designated framework for youth and adult members during registration. Without this framework, there is no organized space to assign your members when they register or renew.
At this step, you are not renewing adult and youth. Individual renewal is part of the year-round process and is based on their individual expiration date, which may not coincide with the unit renewal date.
To successfully renew your unit, make sure the following positions are filled: an Executive Officer, a Chartered Organization Representative (or Council Unit Representative), a Unit Leader, two Committee Members, and, if a pack, a Den Leader. Your Unit has received an email with instructions on how to renew (recharter) your unit for 2025. For more information and downloads go to https://bit.ly/cscmembership
