Hello Pack 214 Parents!
We have been working hard to adjust to our new normal as I am sure you are as well. We want to finish this scouting year strong so while we are at home Den and Pack meetings will be taking place digitally using the platform Zoom which can be accessed via smartphone, tablet, or computer. Our Pack 214 Facebook page is also an excellent resource for challenges, ideas, and resources that are being posted from all over the country and the world! Please reach out to your Den Leaders, Cubmaster, Assistant Cubmaster, and Committee Chair as we are all here to help!
If you haven't already visit https://zoom.us/

In order for your scout to participate in online/digital meetings your scout must complete the rank appropriate requirements set by Scouts BSA.

Scoutbook
Q: How can advancement be tracked remotely?
Pack 214 uses Scoutbook to record and track advancement.
To track advancement remotely, parents should:
- Connect with their child’s member profile via an invitation that the unit leader has sent out if you were not connected from within Scoutbook.
- Once a connection is made, the parent should use the Scouting app, found in both the App Store and on Google Play, to stay connected with their unit.
- The Scouting app provides parents the ability to report any advancement that was completed at home.
Learn more about how to start using Scoutbook and how to connect parents to their Scouts at Scoutbook.com.
Advancement — Cub Scouts
Q: May parents sign off on Webelos and Arrow of Light requirements?
Yes. Through July 31, 2020, parents and other adults in the Cub Scout’s family, may sign off on Webelos and Arrow of Light requirements.
Q: If my den is behind in advancement due to COVID-19, can my Cub Scout continue to work on advancement through the summer?
Yes. Cub Scouts can continue to work on their current den’s advancement through July 31, 2020. This is to provide any additional time a Cub Scout needs to complete their badge of rank; if they earn their badge of rank prior to July 31, 2020, they may advance to the next rank.
