registering for events

  • How do I register for a Lodge event?

    Muscogee Lodge uses the Council online registration system, BlackPug, for all registrations. Links for registration will be on the Muscogee Lodge website for the individual events.

  • What if I do not know my BSA ID?

    Your BSA ID is on your membership card.
    It is also in your my.scouting.org account. You can logon and get your BSA ID.
    If your unit uses ScoutBook or TroopMaster it is in those apps. You can check the app and get your BSA ID.
    It is on your units annual recharter paperwork. You can check with your unit's committee and get your BSA ID.
    Finally, as a last resort, you can call the Scout office (803-750-9868) and they can look it up in the Council registration database.

  • What if I have multiple BSA ID’s?

    You should only have one Council BSA ID. If you somehow ended up with multiple Council BSA IDs call the Scout office (803–750–9868) and they can merge the multiple numbers into one BSA ID.

  • What if my BSA ID is not recognized?

    If you get a message when registering that your BSA ID is not valid or not recognized, it could be one of several things.
    First, make sure that you have your correct BSA ID by double checking your membership card, my.scouting.org account, unit recharter paperwork, or call the Scout office (803–750–9868). If you are sure the number you are using is correct, send an email to This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it. with name and BSA ID so we can check our database.
    Second, if you have not paid your Muscogee Lodge dues in the last 5 years then you need to send an email to This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it. with name and BSA ID so we can manually update the database.

  • Why do you require my BSA ID number to register?

    Each year we process thousands of entries in the Lodge database. Every dues payment, event registration, newly elected member, and more. Using your unique BSA ID allows us to rapidly and efficiently import from the Council registration software (BlackPug) to the Lodge database (LodgeMaster). Without your BSA ID the Lodge volunteers spend hours and hours manually transferring the data.

  • Can I pay at the Scout office?

    Yes, you can pay at the Scout office. However, the personnel at the Scout office do not manage the Lodge database. And the volunteers with Muscogee Lodge do not have access to the Scout office database. If you pay at the Scout office you will need to complete your registration by emailing a copy of your Scout office receipt to This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it.. We will then manually register you for the event.

  • Can I pay with cash or check?

    Yes, you can pay with cash or check at the Scout office if you pre-register for the event. After the registration closes online you can pay with cash or check onsite at the event. While the personnel at the Scout office should not take a payment after registration closes online, if they do you will need to complete your registration by emailing a copy of your Scout office receipt to This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it. or bring your receipt to the event. We will then manually register you for the event.

  • Can I register onsite?

    We strongly encourage pre-registration for all Muscogee Lodge events. We have to order food and supplies well before the event begins. For most events we will allow onsite registration, however onsite registration does not guarantee we will have enough food or enough supplies (patches) for you.
