The Charter Organization Representative, as liaison between the pack and chartered organization, helps to bring the two groups together and establish and maintain a good relationship. Maintaining the relationship is the responsibility of members of the organization as well as all pack leaders.

The chartered organization helps the pack by :

• Providing the Scouting program as an integral part of its program for youth and families.
• Seeing that the Scouting program is conducted according to the policies and regulations of the organization and the Boy Scouts of America.
• Selecting a Scouting coordinator to serve as liaison.
• Providing adequate and safe facilities for the monthly pack meeting.
• Providing opportunities for boys to recognize responsibility to God, to country, to fellowman, and to self.
• Cooperating with the council in fundraising through the United Way and Friends Of Scouting (FOS), so the Scouting program can operate.

The pack helps the chartered organization by :

• Being responsible to the chartered organization for the sound operation of the pack.
• Showing interest in the chartered organization and rendering service to it.
• Keeping the chartered organization informed of the accomplishments of the pack by an annual report from the pack committee and regular reports on pack activities by the Scouting coordinator.
• Inviting members of the chartered organization to participate in pack activities.
• Keeping the Scouting coordinator informed of needs of the pack which should be brought to the attention of the district or council.
• Seeing that the chartered organization receives recognition for operation the pack.
• If these things are not happening between your chartered organization and pack, then a closer relationship needs to be developed. Ask for help from the Unit Commissioner and Scouting coordinator.
