Renew
the charter for your unit
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. The system has been tested in targeted districts
in several councils, including the Longhorn Council, and it is very
effective. PLEASE READ AND FOLLOW THE DIRECTIONS
AND SCHEDULE BELOW.
SCHEDULE
- When you can recharter online.
The UCRS system is not available
from 9 PM Saturday – 6 PM Sunday,
each week due to routine maintenance. Only
those returning users who have already begun the recharter process
will have access. On some occasions, large system upgrades will
cause the entire system to be unavailable for an entire weekend.

How
You Do It |
 |
Getting
Started
The Commissioners
in each District
will offer yearly training meetings for the Unit Charter Renewal System.
Each unit must select an adult to be its renewal processor; this adult
must attend the training.
| Here
is how it works: |
- At
least sixty days before your unit’s expiration date,
select a renewal processor. The renewal processor attends
the district UCRS training. The renewal processor will receive
the Charter Renewal Packet with the UCRS Access code.
- Beginning
60 days before the unit’s expiration date, the renewal
processor will have access to the Unit Charter Renewal System.
(Refer to chart below)
- 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 and applications to your district’s charter turn-in
meeting

The unit selects an adult to complete the online process. This adult
"renewal processor" uses the access code to log on to the
Internet Rechartering Web site. You can selecting to start the process
with current BSA ScoutNET data or you can use data from unit-management
software like Troop Master or ScoutMate. At any time, the renewal
processor can suspend the electronic rechartering process and return
later to the last completed screen.
The Unit Charter Renewal System (UCRS) lets you enter new members,
renew current members, and update information for any registrant.
When completed, the new unit roster is submitted to ScoutNET and a
Unit Charter Renewal Report Package is printed. This package includes
the unit charter application. The unit will acquire the proper signatures
for the charter application and send it to the council, along with
the rest of the package, all new youth and adult applications, and
all fees. The fees are the the same: the $20.00 Charter Fee, $10.00
per person Membership Registration Fee, $12.00 per Boys’ Life
Subscription Fee and the $1.25 per person Insurance fee.
