Golden Gate Area Council, Scouting America

The New Renewal System Basics:
All Membership are from the month of registration to 12 months later. Scouting America does not use a pro-rated membership year.
             For example, joining 8/3/2024 will mean your active membership year is 8/1/2024 to 7/31/2025.You will renew again on 7/31/2025.
             All members that renewed 12/31/2023 will have an annual 12/31 expiration date in the future.
 
An email notification and a renewal link will be sent 60 days before Membership expires. The link provided in the email will direct individuals to a renewal form on My.Scouting. Sign in to  My.Scouting and complete your registration.
 
Need Help?  Most questions about renewal can be answered by your District Commissioner or District Executive. Please see chart below for contact information.
