Join Now Boys ages 5–17

Join Troop NC-2819.

We’re excited to welcome your family to Troop NC-2819! Follow the steps below in order to complete registration, submit the required forms, and get ready for your first troop meeting. If you have questions along the way, our troop leaders are here to help.

  1. Complete the connection form

    Tell us a little about your family using the form below. A troop leader will then add your family to the troop in Trail Life Connect.

    New families: please do not create a Trail Life Connect account first. Your account will be created when we add your family. You’ll receive a welcome email with instructions to set up your profile and create your password.

    Fill out the connection form

    Having trouble with the form? Open it in a new tab.

  2. Set up your parent profile

    Once your Trail Life Connect welcome email arrives, follow its instructions to create your password and complete your parent profile.

  3. Add your Trailmen

    Add each son, ages 5–17, to your family profile in Trail Life Connect. You’ll create and manage a separate profile for each Trailman so the troop can keep his membership and advancement information organized. Your son does not need to log in or manage the profile himself.

    When setting up his profile, you can choose a unique username instead of an email address, so your son does not need his own email account.

  4. Complete consent forms & pay national dues

    Sign all required consent forms in Trail Life Connect and pay your national membership dues to the home office.

    These dues go directly to Trail Life USA and renew annually based on the date you joined. They are separate from your local troop dues in Step 5.

  5. Pay your NC-2819 troop dues

    Troop dues are paid directly to The Church at Indian Trail and help cover your Trailmen’s awards, events, and weekly activity supplies.

  6. Complete your medical forms

  7. Find your place to serve

    We ask every family to serve in some way, if possible. Prayerfully consider how God might use your talents, skills, and knowledge within the troop.

    To begin the process of becoming a Registered Adult or volunteer, first complete the background check process through The Church at Indian Trail.

    A note about the background check

    You may see a pop-up before you begin stating that you’re agreeing to a credit report. We do not run credit reports on volunteers — only a standard background check.
