The Virtual Circle was SpiralScouts' response to covid-19 and allows Scouts to come together digitally, regardless of their location. It is available to all current, as well as new, Scouts.
All Scouts that would like to participate, Complete the Registration Form.
Virtual Only Scouts must pay their annual registration fee.
And also purchase their Scout Welcome Kit to complete the registration process.
We host our virtual circle community through Google Classroom. When you complete the registration form for your scout, you must provide an gmail email address for each scout. This should be a child gmail account specifically set up with the scout's name, not the parents. If you have questions about how to set this email up, please feel free to ask in by email to hq@spiralscouts.org.
Once we have this email address we can add your scout to our Google Classroom. You will receive an invite link to your scout's email account. Once in, you will have access to the scout handbooks, as well as advanced access to brand new badges that will be published in our next handbook update.
Virtual Circle meetings are held one Sunday per month for scouts to be able to participate in a community setting. Meeting schedule and info and access to these meetings will be published in the Google Classroom for all Grand Spiral Circle scouts.
Additionally, the more volunteers we have to lead meetings, the more often our Scouts will be able to meet. If you are interested in volunteering, please consider joining us as a
