Council Fee & Family Discounts

The Pine Tree Council has implemented an annual council fee as a part of the membership registration fee, as of January 1, 2024. These fees are in addition to the national membership fees. Family discounts and scholarships are available.

Council Fees

The fee for youth members in Cub Scouts, Scouts BSA, Venturing and Sea Scouting will be $80, and the fee for registered adult volunteers will be $60. These fees are in addition to the national membership fees.

Unit leaders can submit a request to the registrar for any individual for which the fee would present a financial hardship. Email registration@ptcbsa.org.
