2025 Membership Renewal
Your Unit will be receiving an email with instructions on how to renew (recharter) your unit for 2025. Here’s a few things you can do during October to make things easier, review your roster for:
- Missing adults?
- Youth Protection Training must be current through the end of February or it will stop unit renewal.
- Adults not renewing or retaking Youth Protection must be removed. § Notify Membership (membership@seattlebsa.org) by December 1st to do this – the unit cannot do it themselves.
- Are adults in the correct positions?
- Have any youth aged out?
