Junior Scout Advancement

For all Scouts in your patrol below First Class who are attending this campout, list the top four OUTDOOR requirements they need to advance to their next rank. Please write out the Requirement (for example, write out "Totin Chip" or "Useful Camp Gadget," not "2nd # 4a" or "TF # 6.") If specialized equipment is needed (e.g., for map and compass, Totin' Chip, make sure that: (A) the Scout involved is aware of what he needs to bring to the campout; and (B) the SM (or ASM in charge) is aware of what the Troop needs to bring to the campout. All Junior Scouts attempting to advance should bring their Scout Handbooks on any "car-campout."
