New Features
Print Blue Cards
Scoutbook now supports printing Blue Cards on plain paper or cardstock. Under Print Blue Cards, at the top of the search results is an option to Print on blank 8.5"x11" paper. Select this option to print on plain paper. The entire Blue Card, including all headings, lines, etc. will be printed. Do not select Print on blank 8.5"x11" paper if using the pre-printed Blue Card sheets. NOTE: there is still a limit of 500 Blue Cards at a time so you might need to break up your search.
Retired Youth Leadership Positions
The youth leadership positions of Leave No Trace Trainer and Venture Patrol Leader were retired on January 1, 2016. If one of these positions is selected, Scoutbook will display a message saying the positions were retired and to use Outdoor Ethics Guide or Patrol Leader respectively.
