SCOUTBOOK, ONLINE ADVANCEMENT TOOL AND MORE, AVAILABLE FOR UNITS
Scoutbook is BSA’s online unit management tool that helps Scouts, parents and leaders track advancement and milestone achievements along the Scouting trail. (Scoutbook replaces Internet Advancement.) Leaders and parents can log in to Scoutbook.com using My.Scouting credentials. Den leaders also have access to the Den Leader Experience. Learn more about the Den Leader Experience here.

Merit Badge Counselor Directory
Scoutmasters can access the online Merit Badge Counselor Directory here. If a scout is interested in obtaining a merit badge counselor’s name they should work through their Scoutmaster or Troop Advancement Chair.

Scouts in the Redhawk District work with District Advancement Chair Keith Kohanzo for Eagle Projects and Applications/Boards of Review. Contact the Central Illinois Service Center (217-429-2326) for more information.
