Received from the Scoutbook User Advisory Council: 

Scoutbook moved to a new domain name - scoutbook.scouting.org last week. Please update your bookmarks accordingly if you use them to access Scoutbook. Users who installed the Scoutbook Feature Assistant Extension will need to manually update the extension or accept new permissions due to this domain change.

Known workarounds to access Scoutbook, on either a computer or mobile device, are either:
1. Clear your cache. See How to Clear Cache for All Major Browsers and clear cookies for the scoutbook.com domain. See How to Clear Cookies for a Specific Site.
2. Use an incognito or private window to access Scoutbook at https://scoutbook.scouting.org/mobile. See Finding Your Browser's Private Browsing Mode for instructions

We will keep posting announcements here for our Sunday eBlast, but all Calendar and meeting details, like locations or zoom links will be updated on TeamSnap.  Please make sure you are checking regularly and have downloaded the app.  It will be worth your time to link the TeamSnap calendar to your personal digital calendar if you use one - do this for each patrol if you have more than one scout. You may also want to hide the t444.org calendar if you had previously synced to it in order to avoid confusion as we are not updating the website calendar right now.

Contact Mr. Melson, alanmelson@gmail.com, if you have any questions or need help getting onto the tool. See you there! 

Leaders:  Please view this instructional video (Thank you, Steve Sweeney!) for the steps to add an announcement to the T444.org or T444G.org websites: https://t444.smugmug.com/Other/Website-videos/i-KjdQxs9/A

Due to COVID case spikes in Dallas County, we have decided to postpone our Urban Adventure day in December to later in the spring, when we hope it will be safer to travel around downtown Dallas.  BUT, with special thanks to Mr. Pinkston and Thomas, one of our newest Eagle Scouts, we will be holding our Automotive Maintenance Merit Badge class instead.  Meet at 10 am Saturday, Dec 5 in the AUMC parking lot ready to get a little dirty and learn alot about cars! 

We will keep posting announcements here for our Sunday eBlast, but all Calendar, Meeting and other current information is now on TeamSnap.  Please make sure you are checking regularly and have downloaded the app.  Contact scoutmaster@gt444.org if you have any questions or need help getting onto the tool. See you there!
