Dear District Commissioners and Assistant Council Commissioners,
[cid:image003.jpg@01D8E2E2.7B48BB40]
Attached is the first of many LHC Recharter Status Reports. Please review your District Units status. As of today, only 72 out of 423 units have logged into the Internet Recharter 2.0 module. That is not good. We should be seeing well over 250 units logged in by now. As you know, it’s all about the Unit Key 3 communication. By now, you should have held at least two recharter trainings for your District. In addition, you should have sent at least five recharter communications to your Unit Key 3 Leaders. Unit recharter is due November 15, 2022, for all LHC units and the LHC deadline is December 31, 2022.
Your October Communications:
1. You sent the recharter deck to all District Key 3 Leaders including the Recharter Delegates.
2. You sent reminders about your Recharter training(s).
3. You likely attended Roundtable or will attend RT and discuss portions of the PPT training deck I sent to you.
4. You sent reminders about logging into Internet Recharter 2.0 and reviewing the unit roster.
5. You sent reminders about YPT, specifically about adults who have a YPT expiring during 2023.
6. You included recharter updates in your monthly newsletter.
7. You sent reminders to units who still have a UMC Charter Organization and explained that the unit cannot complete recharter until the unit has a new charter org.
8. You visited your District Commissioner Tools Dashboard and sent an update with units who have started / not started the recharter process.
9. Next step requires all DC’s to jump on the phone this week and speak with the Committee Chair of each unit who has not started the recharter process.
10. Don’t forget to log simple assessments when you correspond with Key 3 Leaders regarding recharter. Recharter is the perfect time for UC’s to contact units.
Key 3 Simple Reminders:
* All Units should be collecting recharter dues for 2023. If you have units who have not started collecting membership dues and have not given a dues deadline, the unit is behind.
* All Committee Chairs or Recharter Delegates need to login to the Internet Recharter 2.0. Please see the attached District Renewal Status Report.
* All Units need to pull a YPT report to determine which adults have YPT that will expire during 2023.
* Unit Recharter is due to Longhorn Council by November 15th.
Nice Work Arrowhead District, Mustang District and Orion District for a QUICK START initiating recharter!
Please reach out to me or your DE if you need support.

Subject: Recharter update
Good Evening!
By now, your unit commissioners should have contacted their units and have the name of the unit’s contact person. I ask that you forward these names to me and Scot.
This will prevent more phone calls than necessary if there is an issue. The units should also know that YPT must be updated and to not wait to begin the computer process.
We are expecting all recharters to be submitted by November 15th. This allows for processing at the service center and if there is a problem it can be addressed with plenty of time to spare.
If you are having trouble with UCs getting contact info, please let me know.
October is half over and that means one month left to get this done. It is achievable. If the above happens, the holidays will be much more enjoyable and less time spent on the phone.
Have a great weekend!

Thanks Brian! Good news all around. I'll also be a Score-O next week.
Roundtable will be both virtual and in-person this month. Hopefully, I won't forget my power adaptor this month :)
There will be breakouts this month. I'll send out the newsletter Tuesday with the Zoom link.

All my fellow Commissioners,
I am sorry that I did not attend the zoom last night. I am out of town. I thought I would get back to my hotel in time to tune in but I did not. Let me know if I need to do anything specific. Units 151 and 3 are doing good and I have visited them all last month. I plan to be at SCORO and visit them again. I think they are beginning to trust me, that I am there to help not criticize. I plan to have a cub Round Table next week. I plan to stress getting early start on Recharter to my units this month. Most are engaged in fund raising activities.
I have one question, Is RT going be both virtual and in person or just in person?

LHC UMC Key 3s –
I am following up on our last communication regarding changing chartered organizations away from the United Methodist Church. As a reminder, the UMC church is still supporting Scouting, but forging a path for a new type of relationship with the organization. By the end of 2022, the UMC will no longer be a chartered organization and we the Longhorn Council is here to assist.
This week on Tuesday evening the Longhorn Council Executive Board approved that the Longhorn Council can be a chartering organization for a unit, which allows your unit to choose from 3 different options in continuing its scouting Journey. You may have seen a similar chart to this in the past. We are going to share in order which way we recommend looking into for the continued journey.
1. Finding a new Traditional Chartered organization and continuing to meet at the UMC church with an approved Facilities use agreement. Traditional charters that may work in this option are Rotary Clubs, Lions Clubs, etc… This option keeps Scouting as close to what you know as possible.
2. Utilizing the Affiliate Organization agreement and the Longhorn Council becomes the chartered organization for your unit. This option allows your unit to continue to meet at the UMC church, but there would be some changes in reporting your unit finances and assets to the council.
3. Finding a new traditional chartered organization. This option would allow your chartered relationship to continue as normal, but this would mean moving meeting spaces and no longer meeting at the UMC church.
4. Group of Citizens Units – Now that the LHC can become the chartered organization for you, we DO NOT recommend this option, where there is some liability that would fall on the parents of the unit.
Please see the link below to help you decide which option works best for you. Please reply back to this email to let me know which option your Scouting Unit is looking to utilize. We would like to begin the paperwork now to provide a seamless transition through recharter.

Good evening!
The month has flown by and this is one of those that has 5 Thursdays. I’ve been eyeing the 5th Thursday but our meeting is this coming Thursday, September 22nd, 7:00 PM, at the council service center. Please make every effort to attend AND invite your commissioners!
Rechartering is the topic and John Hearrell, Stacy Cummings and Scot will be talking about this. They will be going over the changes in the system and how to make the process as easy as possible.
Also, please begin encouraging ALL units to update their YPT. The longer they wait the greater chance the charter might be kicked back after 1-1-23.
I hope to see a large crowd and everyone on the same page.
See you on Thursday!
