What is the Event registration software the Capitol Area Council uses?
Capitol Area Council, Scouting America currently uses the Black Pug registration software for all events and camp registrations. Event volunteers can use the system to do the following:
Build Registrations
Send communications
Check dietary or medical comments from registrants
Run reports
Input, communicate and store class information
Check participants in and out of the event
Print out training reports, cards and other event needs

If I am an Event volunteer, what kind of account do I need and how do I get one?
If an event volunteer needs to work with the event registrations, you will need an admin account. To get an admin account, a volunteer will need to do the following:
Reach out the event staff advisor (link to our Council’s Staff Directory)
Request admin access via email and make sure include what task the volunteer may want to do (see list is section above or User Permissions Sheet here)
If the staff advisor does not have permission to add a user, that staff advisor will need to reach out to the Director of Support Services.
Once access has been granted, email from [email protected] will be sent by the system (if you do not find the email, check junk folder and spam folders). This email will have the user’s UserID and password.
Use the link in the email to go to the Black Pug site and then click to login in link
Use the handouts or request help to learn how to use Black Pug.
All events will need to verify with the event staff advisor before the event can be opened.
