Scouts record keeping software

I disagree with the post taht stated you only need the current year for cub scouts. This may be true if you do not want to know what belt loops and pins have already been earned so you do not have to present them again.

Webelos is a two year program and many requirements build from others. If you have more than a couple of Weelos scouts, you'll never keep track of this. If anyone would like to try them out, you are welcome to the spreadsheets. My only request is feedback - gentle feedback. The spreadsheets are set for Dens that meet once a month, but can be adapted to Dens that meet twice a month.

For everything that really needs to be maintained at the pack level, why not just use the Online Advancement, which is the way they are going for reporting to councils and national. The link is at MyScouting. If you can get it updated and correct, it will go a long way toward helping keep your boy's records straight. Some kind of backup system is needed. We've seen that system crash and burn our Pack's data. TroopMaster is a great system and it does have backups. It is being highly encouraged throughout our district by our troop and a den who are currently using it.

You may not be in an area where you have internet access all of the time. But I can't think of too many places where my cell phone with 3G wouldn't be able to link up to TroopMaster if I absolutely had to have it. If push came to shove I think I could write down the necessary info and transcribe to TroopMaster at a later date. Every form that you could ever need is on this system, not to mention that it can be used for reporting to councils or national.
