What is the Group Fee and how is it set?

The Group Fee are dues set by the group that exist in addition to the National Registration Fee. Groups are not required to charge a fee.

Group Fees are set in MyScouts on the primary Group Page (where the Group Committee are listed).

  1. Access the Group Page.
  2. From the menu, under Org Options, select Add Fee.
  3. The Add/Edit Organization Fees popup window will appear.
  4. Select Member Type - 'Participant'.
  5. Select the required Registration Year.
  6. In the Amount field, enter the additional Group Fee. (E.g. If Group would like to charge $25 on top of the national registration fee, enter $25 only, not the total registration fee).
  7. Select From and To dates. This allows groups to update the Group Fee throughout the season. The fee will be charged within the bracket of dates entered within the selected registration year. Enter zero if no Group Fee is to be charged.
  8. Save.

How do groups receive their Group Fees from Scouts Canada?

Group fees are paid to Groups by electronic fund transfer (EFT) in the following month after the registration has been made. For example, if registration occurs in the month of September, group fee for that registration will be e-transferred to the group bank account by the end of October.

To ensure Group Fees are deposited into the correct bank account, Groups must keep their banking information up to date with the National Finance team. Any changes to the bank account information should be promptly submitted to vendorcontrol@scouts.ca using the Group Financial Request & Direct Deposit Form (see attachments on the top right) along with a copy of a void cheque.
