Parents are expected to ensure their child's full uniform and attendance at meetings, events, and special activities. Stay updated on event registrations, deadlines, and important communications from Scouters. Children's safety is a priority, so make sure to follow sign-in/sign-out procedures and adhere to our guidelines for respectful and responsible behavior.
