Use ScoutBook to Communicate with Adults, Parents, and Scouts in Your Unit
From the ScoutBook Helpdesk - https://help.scoutbook.scouting.org/knowledge-base/using-scoutbook-to-communicate-with-your-unit/
Scoutbook can send email and text messages to adults and Scouts in your unit. Messages from Scoutbook that are sent to a Scout are automatically copied to their parent. Unit leaders can also give parents the right to communicate with everyone in the unit.
