*** Announcing our new communications platform - BAND For more than a decade, League Lineup has been our home for troop announcements, event reminders, and member communications. Unfortunately, League Lineup is shutting down, and the time has come for Troop 318 to move forward with a modern communications solution. Effective June 1, 2026, all official Troop 318 communications and event sign-up will be conducted through BAND. Why BAND? BAND is a free, purpose-built group communications platform designed for organizations like ours. Here is why we chose it: * App-Based & Always Available — BAND is a full-featured mobile app for iPhone and Android, so important troop updates are always right on your phone. A desktop web version is also available. * Youth-Friendly (Under 13 Supported) — BAND is designed to be COPPA-compliant and supports members under the age of 13, making it a safe and appropriate platform for all of our Scouts. * Organized & Easy to Navigate — Messages, events, and photos are all organized in one place, making it easy to stay informed and never miss a deadline or outing. * Private & Controlled — Our BAND group is invitation-only. Only approved members can see posts, ensuring the privacy and security of our troop community. * No Cost — BAND is completely free for all members. See the attached PDF for more information on joining the BAND. When signing up please use your real first and last names, and please indicate whether you are a scout or parent (or leadership role) in your bio. If you have any questions please email Mr. Sullivan - mpsullivan@mpsullivan.com
