2027 Scouting Membership Fee Update 📣
Scouting America National Council has announced an adjustment to national membership and unit charter fees, effective January 1, 2027.
We understand that families are facing rising costs, and we know that any increase can make a difference. These adjustments come as Scouting America works to address increasing operating expenses and continue providing the safe, high-quality programs and support that families and volunteers depend on.
Here at Laurel Highlands Council, we want to help where we can. Our local LHC membership fee will NOT increase for 2027. We are committed to keeping Scouting as accessible as possible for the families in our communities.
We recognize that Scouting is an investment, and we never want cost to stand in the way of a young person's opportunity to learn, grow, lead, and explore.
Thank you for being part of the Scouting family. We appreciate your continued support and understanding.
Please reach out to your Growth Manager with questions.
