Boy Scouts

Overview
ScoutLander.com is an advanced scout pack / troop management system designed to simplify communication between leaders and parents.

ScoutLander.com accomplishes this by distributing the responsibility of maintaining the website across the entire troop. Your Scout Master has total control over who has access to what. ScoutLander's customizable security settings enable leaders,parents, and/or scouts the ability to schedule events, upload photos, broadcast email messages, and post knowledge base articles.

Scout and User Management
User management is simplified by linking parents to one or more scouts in the program. This means that when a parent logs into the system they will see the events and get notifications for their scouts.

In addition, if you also have a Cub Scout and his pack is using ScoutLander, then you will get a combined view across packs, troops, and crews.

Customization
Your website will have the following three main areas:
  • Public Site
  • Secure Site
  • Administration Site
All of these pages are customizable without coding or HTML. However, If you want to use HTML you can. You can edit content, upload images, and attach files for downloading.

  • Would you like the system to notify you via email when the head count changes?
      ScoutLander.com did all that a year ago. You should see what it can do today!

Photo Gallery
Leaders, parents, and scouts can attach photos to events. Once the photos are uploaded, users can tag the photos with the names of the people in it. This enables you to search the entire gallery for a particular parent or scout.





Email Broadcast System
The days of passing around and updating large emails lists are over!

With the Email Broadcast System, leaders can send emails out to the entire troop, patrol / multi-patrol, leaders only, or selected users.

Within the email, you can attach one or more events. The resulting email will include a direct URL hyperlink to the event(s).

This is the perfect tool for keeping scout, parents and leaders up-do-date.



Knowledge Base
I know what you are thinking... Maybe we went too far by giving troops their very own commercial grade knowledge base.

Well... how many times have you said, "do we need to remember this for next year"?

The Knowledge Base is designed to store lessons learned, helpful tips, useful website links, flyers, documents, maps, contact names, and just about anything you can imagine. Learn More...
