check out the helpful tips below regarding INTERNET RECHARTERING.

The Sequoia Council is excited to offer Internet Rechartering to your unit.  This new method for rechartering will make the whole process easier because you'll be completing the charter renewal information yourself-which ensures that it will be correct- and you can do it from your home or office anytime that it's convenient for you.

Internet Rechartering is a web-based application that lets you process the important parts of your charter renewal paperwork online! If you are tired of crossing out and writing in updated information on your Roster reports, then Internet Rechartering is for you. With Internet Rechartering, you can indicate returning members, add new members, and update information for an individual or the chartered organization.

Get Ready for Internet Rechartering 

  • Assign someone in your unit to be in charge of Internet Rechartering. This person is called the "Recharter Processor." It is not necessary for this person to have rechartering expertise, but it is helpful. If you use Troopmaster or Packmaster your Recharter Processor will work closely with this person to make sure that both systems reflect accurate information.
  • Pick up your Charter Renewal Packet – they will be available at upcoming Roundtables.
  • Visit the online tutorial to become familiar with the overall process
  • Review the information on the Frequently Asked Questions page (FAQs)
  • Make sure your roster is as up to date as possible.
  • Gather completed adult applications for all adults that you will add to your unit during the Internet Rechartering proccess.
  • Gather completed youth applications for all scouts that you will add to your unit during the Internet Rechartering proccess.

To Renew your Charter Online

  • As early as November 1st, the renewal processor clicks Recharter Now below and begins the process.
  • 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, and all appropriate fees to the Service Center.

What's Different?

Not much. You still need to update your roster:

  • Review information about your chartering organization
  • Add new scouts as necessary
  • Remove any non-continuing scouts
  • Add new adults in leadership positions
  • Update position information for continuing adults
  • Get the proper signatures on your recharter paperwork
  • Turn in the recharter paperwork along with applications for new adults and scouts, and your fees to the Council Offices.

But...

  • Gone is the need to manually cross off non-returning adults and scouts
  • Gone is the need to write out all of the information for new adults and scouts
  • Gone is the need to cross out and update information on existing scouts and adults
  • The system checks to make sure that you have the right positions filled (Scoutmaster, Cubmaster, Advisor, etc.)
  • The system automatically calculates your fees for you.
  • The system will print out your recharter paperwork for you - you just need to get it signed!

Where to Go for Help

This is a new process and is very straight-forward. But, like anything new, you may need some help in getting started using Internet Rechartering.  You Unit Commissioner should be your first resource, and if additional help is needed, see your District Executive. You can contact your District Executive at the following service centers:

    Fresno Service Center at (559) 320-2100 or the Visalia Service Center at (559) 732-3424
