SCOUTS, Now is the time to check your records in Scoutbook  If you don’t have access to Scoutbook, please ask your parents to grant you access.  You can see your BSA ID #, rank, completed merit badges, leadership position, patrol, contact information (parents, address, phone number), to name a few details in your record.  It is good to check this information during your scout journey so that you are familiar with these records (and the records are correct) when you start work towards Eagle.  Questions?  Please reach out to the Advancement Chair.

Troop 216 has a mandatory volunteer commitment which families choose a Troop 216 volunteer position at the time of joining and each year in November.  Please take a look at the listing of volunteers (left column, "Troop 216 Mandatory Adult Volunteering", and make sure you have been listed correctly.  It is important that you immediately take on your position; proactively registering under T216 with National and Council, ask questions if you don't know how to take on your position or look to the previous volunteer for assistance.  IF YOU DO NOT HAVE A VOLUNTEER position or you are listed for a POSITION INCORRECTLY, please contact Membership Chair Suketu Khandhar.

The troop committee reserves the right to drop a family, if the family does not fulfill their volunteer responsibilities at any time during the year.  Questions?  Please contact Committee Chair Kevin Ha.

Many have asked... "will I lose my scout's TROOP non-refundable deposit for summer camp or summer high adventure, if there is a change due to TROOP changing the camp schedule or there isn't enough space for my scout?"  Quick answer... NO.  A family will be refunded their TROOP non-refundable deposit if there is a change due to the TROOP and or summer camp or summer high adventure that causes their scout to drop.  These funds can also be refunded if the scout has to drop due to a family or scout reason, IF the family / troop is able to find another scout / adult to take their spot.  Questions?  Please contact CC Kevin Ha.
