On line Internet Unit Rechartering
Rechartering on time is critical. It is required for units to:
- qualify for the National Quality Unit Award;
- continue registration without interruption;
- ensure Scouts are registered, critical for receiving rank advancement and other awards;
- and for insurance coverage.
Each unit must select an adult to be its renewal processor. A representative of each unit can now complete the paperwork for renewing a charter online. From Internet Rechartering, you can indicate returning members, add new members, and update information for an individual or the chartered organization.
To renew a charter online:
- Sixty days before your unit's expiration date, select a person to be your unit's renewal processor.
- The renewal processor attends the October roundtables to receive training and the unit access code.
- Sixty to 45 days before the unit's expiration date, the renewal processor clicks Recharter Now and begins the process.
When the online process is completed, the renewal processor prints the completed charter renewal application.
The unit leader and the chartered organization representative sign the charter renewal application. Bring the application along with the material you received in your recharter packet (such as the Quality Unit application), and all appropriate fees to your district's charter turn-in meeting.
Remember, the re-charter process is not complete:
- until your unit re-charter application has been signed;
- completed applications for all new youth and adults are turned in with the re-charter; and
- all applicable fees are submitted to the Council Service Center.
