Register and Pay Dues

Click the link below to Register with the Troop and pay the Eaglet Dues. To join the troop, dues are $60. These dues cover the Troop Neckerchief and Slide, Scout Handbook, Olive Shoulder Loops, and the Troop 58 Class B T-Shirt. which you will receive at Crossover Normal annual dues will be $225 and are collected in September of each year.

STEP 2
Reviewed and Signed Troop 58 Discipline Policy

It is important to sit with your scout and review the discipline policy with them. This will be an annual attestation. Please print this form, sign and your scout will return it to Scoutmaster Zangara. It is important that your scout hand delivers this paper to Scoutmaster Zangara at the first troop meeting.

STEP 3
Reviewed and Signed Troop 58 Code of Conduct

It is important to sit with your child and review the Code of Conduct with them. This will be an annual attestation. Please print this form, sign and your scout will return it to Scoutmaster Zangara. It is important that your scout hand delivers this paper to Scoutmaster Zangara at the first troop meeting.

STEP 4
Signed Parts A & B of BSA Health Form​

 

Details for your Health Form
Unit Leader: Chris Zangara  

Phone: 703-303-0425

Council Name/No: Mecklenburg County Council / 415    

Unit No: Boy Troop 58

​​

  • Return all the Health Documents together, ideally staple them together and return

​

If your scout is planning to attend Summer Camp then you will need the following:

​

  • Schedule your appointment with your Family Doctor and complete Part C of the Health Form before June of this year

  • Part C can be found at this address: https://filestore.scouting.org/filestore/HealthSafety/pdf/680-001_ABC.pdf

  • After you have Part C completed, you will need to return a photocopy of all the documents listed above plus Part C in duplicate.

  • NOTE: You only need to return Part C and duplicates of everything above after your have met with your Family Doctor. All other documents (Part A & B, Vaccination Record and Health Card Photocopy), return that ASAP. In our experience, scheduling your Family Doctor visit as close to June as you can works very well.

​

​

STEP 5
Reviewed and Signed Troop 58 Parents Pledge

It takes a lot to effectively run Troop 58. Following Crossover, we will have around 90 scouts and without volunteers we cannot offer a healthy and productive program. While Scouts BSA is led by the scouts, there is plenty of help needed by the parents and other family members. A small bit of support from you will help take pressure off of other leaders. Please reach out to us for more  information and we will also schedule time very soon to review opportunities.  Please print this form, sign and return to the troop.

STEP 6
Refer to the Troops Event Calendar

Add the scheduled troop trips and events to your calendar. Here is the link to calendar on troop website.
