Scout and adult recharter process
IMPORTANT: The national council has changed this process so please follow the instructions below carefully. Please note that only Scouts and adults who are currently registered with the Troop may recharter through this process. If you are a new Scout to Troop 52, please see the New Scout Information section.
Moving forward, families will be responsible for renewing their Scouts BSA annual membership by paying the national dues through the Scouting America website: https://my.scouting.org
Scouts are $85/year (+$15 if you want a Scout’s Life magazine subscription).
Adults are $65/year (+$15 if you want a Scout's Life magazine subscription).
Troop 52 dues are now a separate payment through the Store: https://troop52lakeway.us/store/ols/products/2025-troop-52-dues
Scouts are $25/year
Adults are $25/year
NOTE: if you are planning to pay with cash or check, please select the "Offline" option when checking out through the Troop Store and bring you cash/check to the Troop Treasurer - Raj Ganta at a Troop meeting.
For directions on renewing your membership and paying the National and Troop dues, please see the instructions in the forms section below.
Another required item associated with the renewal process is completing the required forms for Troop 52.
- Code of Conduct. There is a version for Scouts and a version for adults planning to participate in Troop campouts, activities or become a leader in the Troop. They are both available in the forms section below. Please complete these forms and either email them to the Troop Registrar - Brian Spears or bring them to Brian at a Troop meeting.
- Medical Forms. These are required for Scouts and adults planning to participate in Troop campouts, activities or become a leader in the Troop. Parts A and B can be filled out by the parents. Part C is only required for Scouts if attending a campout for longer than 72 hours (Summer Camp, High Adventure, etc.). Part C has to be filled out by your child’s doctor. Per BSA, this has to be a physical copy and should not be scanned and emailed. Please bring this to the Troop Registrar - Brian Spears.
PLEASE NOTE: Adults will not be re-chartered if they do not have current BSA YPT and / or EIM training. “Current” means that training certificate should be valid through at least the early part of January, the following year. For example, a person whose YPT expires in December 2025 cannot recharter for 2025 with the unit without completing the training. If you do not have current BSA YPT or EIM training and pay dues we will NOT be able to refund these dues. Instructions are available below on how to complete or refresh your training. If you are not sure about the status of your YPT or EIM training, please contact the Troop Registrar - Brian Spears.
adult training
At Troop 52, we take the personal safety of our Scouts seriously!
Adults planning to participate in Troop 52 campouts, activities or become an adult leader ("Scouter") in the Troop MUST HAVE up to date training per the following:
Ethics and Integrity in Ministry (EIM) workshop. The background check and workshop are mandated requirements by Emmaus Catholic Church (the Troop's sponsoring organization). To check your compliance or to register for a background check or workshop please visit https://www.virtusonline.org To verify that all profile information is up-to-date, and look at the Compliance Summary Box to view your most recent workshop/training date and background check date (both must be within 3 years to be compliant). After 3 years, a shorter "refresher workshop" will need to be taken and a new background check submitted. More detailed instructions can be found here: https://www.austindiocese.org/eim-instructions IMPORTANT NOTE: The BSA Adult Application cannot be signed-off and submitted to Scouting America until both online Catholic Diocese of Austin Volunteer Application and the EIM Workshop are completed.
BSA Youth Protection Training (YPT) course. This is an online training course which can be found at www.scouting.org on the Youth Protection page. Before taking the course you will need to create an account at My.Scouting.org (if you do not have one yet). This training must be maintained current by taking the course every two years and is required for anyone who participates in summer camps and certain other troop activities. After training completion you should print the certificate.
