You will be given a "group" name and password, which you can use for creating a personal account, tied to a specific role.

Please try to use a combination of your first and last name, instead of a generic account name like den12.

Also, be advised that administrators can see your password, so DO NOT reuse passwords from other services.

Verifying Scout and Parent Information
It is always a good idea to verify the data for your scouts and parents. If you spot something wrong, please notify the membership chair, and they will correct the data.

Updating Advancement Data

• Try to record data (achievements, electives, awards) right after a den meeting.
• Periodically generate reports and hand them out to parents, so they can verify them against their own records. To do so, go to Reports -> Awards/Advancement -> Wolf Details (if your den is Wolf). Select all the scouts for which you want to generate the report, and click Generate Report. You can then click on the drop-down under Export to the selected format and pick PDF or Excel (however you choose to distribute the den records to parents).
• Belt Loops and Pins are available under Academic/Sports Awards.
  
• Use Group Credit carefully. It will record the date for an achievement, but not individual rubrics under that achievement.

Special Awards (Recruiter Patch, Summertime Activity Awards, Geocaching Patch etc)

Recording awards like the Summertime Activity Award, Recruiter Patch etc has to be done under Special Awards.

If there is a special award that you would like to record and present to scouts, but is not in the list, please email training at pack216.cary.nc.us and it will be added.
