Useful Instructions on how to fill out the form

1. Click on the consent form to download it

A boy scout registration form should be completed and submitted to the association once the child has been approved to participate in any events related to the Boy Scouts. 

2. Become familiar with Boy Scout activities

It is the parent's or legal guardian's responsibility to research all possible activities that their child may participate in. In this way, you can ensure your child does not participate in any activities that they shouldn't or could harm them.

3. Indicate any limitations

If the parent or legal guard knows a child has medical or physical restrictions that need to be noted, they should do so in clear and concise terms.

4. Make a signature on your child's behalf

Having reviewed the form for accuracy and adding all necessary information, the Parent or Legal Guardian will be required to sign it.
