The Baden-Powell Patrol
If you want evidence that your patrol is a
GREAT patrol, then you'll want to go the extra mile and earn the
Baden-Powell Award. The award is special partly because it is
named after Scouting's founder, Lord Robert Baden-Powell. But
the really special part is that any patrol that earns the award
will be getting the most it can out of Scouting!
The award is an embroidered star worn beneath
your patrol medallion, and it spotlights your patrol as one of
the best. It's a challenge the guys can really get behind.
The award is presented to patrols that complete
the following requirements:
- Spirit:
Have a patrol flag and rally around it. Put your patrol design
on all your equipment. Use your patrol yell or cheer and patrol
call. Keep patrol records up to date for 3 months.
- Hikes, outdoor activities
and other events: Take part in one of
these (your patrol only with proper adult supervision) within
3 months.
- Good Turns or service projects: Do a patrol leaders' council-approved Good Turns
or service projects within 3 months.
- Advancement / Leadership: Help two patrol members advance one rank during
3 months
- Membership:
Have at least 6 active Scouts in your patrol for 3 months
- Uniform. Wear the uniform correctly. (75%
of your patrol)
- Patrol Leaders Council: Represent your patrol during 3 patrol leaders' council
meetings in a 3 month period
