Baden-Powell Patrol
If you really want evidence that the patrol you lead is a great patrol, then
you'll want to "go the extra mile" and earn the Baden-Powell Patrol Award.
The award is special partly because it's 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 given 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.
- Patrol meetings. Hold two patrol meetings each month for
three months.
- Hikes, outdoor activities, and other events. Take part
in one of these within 3 months.
- Good Turns or service projects. Do two patrol leaders'
council approved Good Turns or service projects within three months.
- Advancement. Help two patrol members advance one rank
during 3 months.
- Uniform. Wear the uniform correctly (at least six
scouts).
- Patrol leaders' council. Represent the patrol during
three patrol leaders' council meetings within 3 months.
