Scoutbook
Scoutbook is an online tool, created and managed by BSA, to help units, leaders, parents, and scouts track their ranks and achievements along their scouting journey. Pack 628 uses Scoutbook regularly to update awards and achievements, maintain the Pack's activity calendar, but most importantly allows the leaders to quickly and effectively email members of the Pack. When you first join or transfer to Pack 628 we ask that you set up your Scoutbook account as soon as possible.
​
Below is a video that demonstrates the initial steps of setting up a Scoutbook account as well as the general usage of the application.
