National has launched a new community portal/blog site focused specifically on Scouting. It is open to anyone in Scouting 14 yrs old and up. To sign up, you can go to the My Scouting site and create an account if you don't have one and then go to the Scouting Community site.

There are groups within the community for the Longhorn Council, the High Adventure bases and many other aspects of Scouting. I have created a group for Topsanah District that is open to join.

Welcome to the new Topsanah District website!

Welcome!

In order to better serve the district and foster a more open communication with our members, we've upgraded the technologies we use to run the District website. We replaced the 4+ year old software with a new content management system. We hope that this will help provide our members more timely and updated information.

As always, if you have suggestions or run into a problem, please let the webmaster know ( This e-mail address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it ).

Areas Still Being Moved

Please note that we are still in the process of rewriting some of the custom applications that we created over the last several years. The following items are not in place yet. In order to leverage them, you will need to go to the old website or use the link provided below to access that functionality. We anticipate that the remaining components will be implemented by the end of fall 2008.

Program specific information, including news and events, can be found for each specific program by selecting the menu items at the top of the site. A new menu will be visible that will show you news and events, as well as any other specific information.

Calendar information is now available as a Google calendar embedded within the website. There is a link in the main menu to the calendar and, on the main page to the right, there is a list of the next 5 upcoming events.
