Ideas & Requests

Are we able to add an informational page as a button on the top right? Or could we reorder them? Currently, I have our Rye Brook Pack 3 Flag description as an informational page, which we would like to show. I submitted a request to use our current domain - www.ryebrookpack3.org . A previous Cubmaster created it, so we will need his help. The navigation is a little clunky. Have to click on More, Settings, etc. Maybe a hamburger link on the right or left side? It would give more real estate and functionality, although I'm not sure how difficult that is.

If a Troop does not want to show any trips, make sure this block says "Log In to View Calendar" as opposed to "No Upcoming Trips."

Send troop announcements, trip-roster messages, and parent-to-leader messages inside S4S instead of scattered email chains and group texts. Built to follow BSA Youth Protection rules — group-only, fully auditable, no private one-on-one adult-to-scout messages — with email notifications and an inbox.

Run a fundraiser the same clean way trips work: create it, track who participated and how much they sold, then distribute proceeds to scout accounts and the general fund using a configurable split (e.g. 30% to the scout / 70% to the troop, flat-per-unit, or 100% to one or the other) — with a leaderboard and one-click credit distribution.

Expand the calendar's event categories to cover Training, OA/District, Holiday & School Break, and Recruitment events, each color-coded, with a muted style for holidays and no-meeting days. Filter chips let you show or hide event types (and past events) so the calendar stays readable across a full program year.

If you're part of more than one troop on S4S — a leader who helps two units, or a parent with kids in different troops — add a switcher under your name to jump between each troop's dashboard without signing in again. Each troop shows your role there and marks the one you're currently in.

When a trip fills up, let additional families join a waitlist and be promoted automatically (with a notification) as soon as a spot opens — no manual tracking of who's next in line.

Let a leader or parent submit a reimbursement from the trip detail, attach a receipt, and have an admin approve or deny it. Approved amounts post automatically as a credit, with the ability to request a clearer receipt when needed.

A single leader view per trip showing total cost, how much has been collected, what's still outstanding, and a per-scout breakdown — so treasurers can see at a glance who still owes without exporting a spreadsheet.

Let the system send timely reminders on its own — a payment reminder before a trip when a balance is still owed, a signup-deadline nudge to families who haven't signed up, and a day-before pre-trip reminder with the details. Admins set the lead times; parents can tune non-financial reminders (financial reminders always stay on).
