Complete the Paperwork
Although by this point much of the paperwork may already be done, the
organizer or commissioner for the new unit may be involved now to ensure that
all of the paperwork has been correctly completed.
The unit commissioner may
also take the paperwork to the local council service center for processing.
Remember that
- The new-unit application requires the signature of the head of
the chartered organization.
- Every youth and adult leader must complete an application.
- The registration fees must be collected and kept with the
applications and then submitted to the local council service
center in a timely manner.
Youth Applications
When accepting youth applications, it's important to
- Make sure that all applications are completed in full, including
the health history information
on the back side.
- Collect the appropriate fees, including registration fees, charter
fee, and Boys' Life subscription fees.
- Check applications for signatures of a parent and of the unit
leader.
Adult Leader Applications
When accepting adult leader applications, it's important to
- Make sure that all applications are completed in full,
including the names of references.
- Collect the appropriate fees.
- Be sure the authorized leaders approve adult leader
applications. The chartered organization head or the
chartered organization representative approves all adult
applications. The unit committee chair approves all
applications except that of the chartered organization
representative, which is approved by the head of the
chartered organization.
