Ordering Advancement items
Since our ScoutShop is closed for the time being, here is the temporary procedure for ordering advancement items from National Supply.

1. Unit Leaders are to email an Advancement Report to: 

2. Include a contact phone number which a Customer Service Team Member will use to make contact for payment information.

3. Customer Service reps will contact Unit Leaders for credit card information along with shipping and billing address information, and to verify the Council and the actual Advancement needed. 

4. The Customer Service Team is responsible for sending, via FedEx, all original reports to the Council's Registrar.

 

We’d love to hear from you about how Scout’s in your life are providing service to others.  If you have “Every Day Hero or Heroine” stories you’d like to share please email them to us at one of the addresses below.  We would like to share it with others to bring a smile, hope, and encouragement, and remind everyone that the “Scout Spirit” is thriving and Scouts remain prepared to “Do Their Best” in all times.  We are with you in “Scout Spirit!” and may health be with us all.
