Recurring Events
Overview
Most units have regular meetings (weekly den meetings, monthly pack meetings, etc.). Recurring events let you create them once and have them repeat automatically.
Required role: Administrator, Leader, or Event Coordinator
Setting Up a Recurring Event
1. Create a New Event
Follow the normal event creation process.
2. Enable Recurrence
Check the Recurring option and configure:
| Option | Description |
|---|---|
| Frequency | Weekly, Bi-weekly, or Monthly |
| Day of week | Which day(s) the event occurs |
| End date | When the recurrence should stop (or “No end date”) |
3. Save
Click Save. Scout Manager creates all recurring instances.
Editing Recurring Events
When you edit a recurring event, you’ll be asked:
- This event only — change just this one occurrence
- This and all future events — change this occurrence and all following ones
- All events in series — change every occurrence (past and future)
Deleting Recurring Events
Same options as editing — you can delete one occurrence, future occurrences, or the entire series.
Tips
- Recurring events share the same RSVP settings and reminders
- Each occurrence can be individually customized after creation
- Great for: weekly den meetings, monthly pack meetings, committee meetings
