Texas Trails Council, BSA Scout Shop Updates 2019

Merchandise requests and orders: From this point forward, we will no longer be accepting orders over the phone. If you have a merchandise request or need to place an order, please come by the council Scout Shop, or place the order through the internet using the Scout Shop website found HERE. Please fill out the Merchandise Request Form and e-mail the completed form to ttcscoutshop@scouting.org. Once we receive the order, someone will contact you by e-mail or phone to confirm the merchandise request was received. If you are not contacted within 48 to 72 hours, please call us at 325-677-2688 to ensure we received it.

Unit Advancement: With Scoutbook being made free to use for all BSA units, we are now pushing for every unit to begin using it when entering and tracking advancement for scouts. When working properly, Scoutbook will allow unit leaders to set up Advancement Sync, which will sync up advancement data between ScoutNET and Scoutbook. This will allow you to download and print out an already filled out advancement report to use when turning advancement into the council.

With Scoutbook being made free to use for all units, the demand for paper copies of Advancement Reports has been low. National Supply has discontinued them, meaning the Scout Shop can no longer order them. You can find downloadable Advancement Reports under the "Unit Resources" section by clicking HERE.
