Here at Ship 323, we're all about family!  When you register your child for Sea Scouts, everyone becomes a member. Parents, guardians, aunts and uncles, grandparents, godparents, and (of course) siblings, are welcomed and encouraged to join in on the fun.  Not only will your Scout make new friends, but you'll find that you do as well.  That atmosphere is something we're very proud of and look forward to each year.

Now that you've registered, you may be wondering what to do next.  Here are the Ship 323 1-2-3's for getting started!

1. SCOUTBOOK: A few days after you submit a youth application, your Scout will be registered with Ship 323.  Mayflower Council regularly syncs their records with Scoutbook, the program we use to communicate with families and track your Scout's advancement.  When that happens, you'll receive an email asking you to connect to your Scout's account.  It's very important that you open that email and follow the instructions.

2. SLACK: We have a private Slack channel for Scouts and families only. This group is where we post photos, event reminders, share events, announcements, and more! You need to be invited to this group by an admin.  For the privacy of our Scouts, we are very careful about who we provide access to. Please let us know you are in need of access by sending us an email at info@ship323weymouth.org.  Join us there when you can!

3. CALENDAR:  Our Calendar is a Google Calendar pinned to our private Slack channel that gives all the good details about our upcoming year, from Ship meetings and Quarterdeck meetings to banquets and outings. We have an action-packed year ahead and our special events kick-off soon, so it's important that you access our calendar right away. 

We've said it before, and we'll say it at least a million times more, we're so glad you've decided to join and trust us with your Sea Scouting adventure!  We look forward to an awesome year and can't wait to meet all of you.  Should you need help or an answer to some questions, please email us at info@ship323weymouth.org.

Yours in Scouting,

Aaron Christian, Skipper

Mike Josti, Ship Committee Chair
