You may now assign a color to each event type by selecting a color from a drop down list.
We recommend assigning a color to all of your event types. The calendar will then display the event name in the corresponding color.
Many of the other pages that list events will display the event name in color.
This feature is not applicable to Cub Scout and Girl Scout sites.
Scouts may now earn community service hours and conservation hours on the same event.
As shown below, you may update any event type to allow both types of activities to be credited.
When you enter an event of this type, it will have fields for entering both the default community service hours and the default conservation hours that will be earned by participants at this event.
If the event involves shifts, you can configure each shift to be either for community service or conservation.
When you take attendance, there will be override columns for both service and conservation hours.
If you know that the event you are about to add is at a new location that is not already in your TroopWebHost database, your best choice is still to click the Add Event At New Location button. This will allow you to enter all of the details about the location, then proceed directly to the pages where you enter information about the event.
But what if you start entering a new event and discover that the location is not on the list? Rather than make you start over, we now allow you to create a placeholder for the new location, which you can update later.
Here we show an example where we are entering a new event...
Not finding the location on the list, we tab past the Location field, at which point a new field appears: New Location Name.
Entering a value into this field will cause a new location to be created with this name (unless a location already exists with that name, in which case the event will be linked to that existing location.)
After you finish creating the event, you should go to the Maintain Event Locations page and enter the rest of the details for this new location, such as the description, website URL, address, etc.
