Notice there is room for three telephone numbers:  home, cell phone, and business.

Each adult can have two e-mail addresses, plus an SMS text mail address.  SMS text mail addresses look like an e-mail address, except that the first portion is the person's cell phone number.  You can find a full explanation of SMS addresses at https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SMS_gateway.  If you enter a cell phone number and select the cell phone carrier from the drop down list, the system will automatically generate the correct SMS address for this user.

The Adult Leader Information is only needed for adult leaders.

The contents of the About Me field will be displayed on the Adult Leaders page for this leader.  You might want to describe this person's background and role in the troop.

The Adult Leader section includes the dates on which each part of the medical form was last submitted, along with health insurance and allergies.

The Vehicle section collects information about the vehicle this adult will use if he is transporting scouts.

This information will appear on the Tour Permit Worksheet when this adult signs up as a driver for an event.

The Emergency Contacts section allows you to provide the name and phone number of two people to contact if there is a problem.

If this person is an adult member of the Order of the Arrow, the section at the bottom allows you to maintain the history of his participation.
