Welcome to the Knox Trail Internet Rechartering!

The Knox Trail Council is proud to introduce a new and improved method of the annual rechartering process.  Units will
now have the ability to update and submit their unit roster online.   A complete set of instructions will accompany your official recharter packet.  The unit kit will include many of the same materials as in years past.  The only difference in the process is the roster will now be updated online by the unit and then submitted electronically to the Council in a safe and secure manner.  Each
unit designates a person to be their "data processor for rechartering" and will be given a unit login code and password with
the recharter kit.  This will provide access to the unit's “real time” information. 

The Internet site provides a program for updating leader and Scout information, will calculate the fees automatically, and
accept Boys' Life subscriptions.  Upon completion of the process the leader will then print the revised roster to submit with
proper payment along with all original youth and adult leader applications with CORI Form for all new leaders. 
Signatures on all youth and adult leader applications with hard copies are still required upon submission of the completed renewal. This process will greatly assist our council in compiling the most accurate and up to date unit information. 

The new system is also designed to integrate Packmaster and Troopmaster software.  If your unit currently uses this software
you may upload the roster information directly into the online rechartering program. 

What's not changed...  

• A meeting of the commissioner or district representative to conduct a membership inventory of youth and adults
   Contacts or visits should be made to inactive youth and adults. Every effort should be made to recruit additional
   youth and adults so the unit reregisters with no loss of membership.

• A meeting of the commissioner or district representative and unit committee chair to conduct the charter renewal
  meeting, which includes identifying youth and adults to reregister, completing forms, and collecting fees. The
  executive officer of the chartered organization or chartered organization representative approves all volunteers
  and the unit leader certifies the youth to be registered. Participants of this meeting should include the unit
  commissioner, chartered organization representative, executive officer of the chartered organization, unit leader
  and all other unit volunteers.

• A signed hardcopy of charter papers, signed applications for new members and adult leaders. New adult leaders
  must include the CORI Form w/ verified photo ID.

 
 

How to Use

A representative of each unit can now complete the paperwork for renewing a charter online. From Internet
Rechartering, you can indicate returning members, add new members, and update information for an individual
or the chartered organization.

The November roundtables will feature training on Internet Rechartering. Each unit must select an adult to be its
"renewal processor"; this adult must attend the training. Additionally, anyone who wants to learn more about how Internet
Rechartering works can take the interactive Internet Rechartering tutorial and view the help.

To renew a charter online:

  1. Sixty days before your unit's expiration date, select a renewal processor.
  2. The renewal processor attends the November roundtables to receive training and the unit access code.
  3. Sixty to 45 days before the unit's expiration date, the renewal processor clicks Recharter Now and begins
    the process.
  4. When the online process is completed, the renewal processor prints the completed charter renewal application.
  5. The unit leader and the executive officer of the chartered organization sign the charter renewal application.
    Bring the application along with the material you received in your recharter packet (such as the Quality Unit
    application, Fee Worksheet and Diversity Study), and all appropriate fees to your district's charter turn-in meeting.
