About MySummitKeep
Built by Scout leaders, for Scout leaders. We believe managing a unit should be as rewarding as leading one.
Our Mission
Scout leaders volunteer thousands of hours to shape young people into future leaders. Too much of that time gets consumed by paperwork, spreadsheets, and juggling multiple tools. MySummitKeep exists to give leaders that time back -- so they can focus on mentoring, teaching, and building character instead of managing records.
Our Values
Scout-Led Development
Every feature is designed with real Scout leaders in mind. We build what units actually need, not what looks good on a spec sheet.
Privacy First
Youth protection is paramount. We follow strict data security practices, enforce tenant isolation, and never sell your data -- we share it only with the vetted service providers needed to run the platform.
Continuous Improvement
We release updates regularly based on community feedback. Every troop meeting teaches us something new that we can build into the platform.
Community Driven
MySummitKeep is built by Scouters who understand the challenges of troop management. Our roadmap is shaped by the leaders who use it every day.
Our Journey
The Idea
Frustrated with fragmented tools and spreadsheets, a Scout leader decided there had to be a better way -- and started building one.
Development Begins
The core platform took shape with event management, advancement tracking, and member directories as the foundation.
Launch
MySummitKeep launched with full multi-program support, meal planning, equipment tracking, training management, and more.
Growing Together
Council-wide tools, mobile apps, and features driven by the Scouting community.
Meet the Team
MySummitKeep is a family affair. It's built and run by one Scouter -- coded late at night after den meetings, field-tested by my own Scouts, and kept honest by my toughest reviewer at home.

The home team: two Scouts who break things faster than I can fix them, and a QA department at the kitchen table that doesn't let anything slide. MySummitKeep gets built around real den meetings, campouts, and advancement nights -- because that's where it gets used.
