All of Occoneechee Council’s events, meetings and other notices now come from our Black Pug calendar

As many know by now, Tentaroo is no longer used for event registration at Occoneechee Council. We now run our online calendar out of Black Pug scouting event software.

All events are directly linked in Black Pug, where units and individuals can register to attend. Meetings, holidays and notices are posted there, too.

Please pardon any minor errors there may be due to the transition to our new Black Pug calendar. Please email program@scouting.org if you find any issues that require our immediate attention.

There is a plan for district calendars to migrate to Black Pug, a project that the Council is working on with district leadership.

Need to get familiar with Black Pug? Start here.

Black Pug helps make Scouting easier for your unit, with everything from:

• Uploading your Unit Roster
• Selecting Merit Badge Classes
• Registering for Summer Camp
• Running Blue Card records for events

A Black Pug account allows you to save your activity data, makes registering faster, and gives you access your unit account if you have a leadership role in your unit. If you are a committee chair, make sure to register with the email address on file in my.scouting.org so that it automatically syncs you with your unit.

Use your unit roster for event and merit badge registrations:

Accessing Council-provided rosters

We will regularly update the roster in Black Pug to assist you in registering on behalf of your unit and to validate membership for anyone registered to stay overnight. Anyone in your unit with roster access will be able to see the roster when registering.
