Natl Outdoor Badge Tracking

To help scouts keep track of the various requirements of miles, nights, hours, and adventures for the National Outdoor Badge awards, I've created some documents.

Hopefully, they'll make the broad range of requirements more manageable for your scouts.

See the National Outdoor Badges page for the PDF files.

Is there an effective date when this can be earned? The old system allowed one to go back to 1991.

Where does the patch go on the uniform?

Oct 01, 2010 - Ron Blaisdell

Matt -- it is a temporary patch, so it goes on the right pocket.

The Old Patch was able to be earned by the Scouter Scout Leader.(Currently Doing) Will there be an Option with the new one for a Scout leader to earn this?

Oct 02, 2010 - Scoutmaster Paul

None of the forms or BSA information mention adults earning the new awards.

How is camping defined? Is it tent camping only, or is cabin and lean-to included? If someone could refer me to a definitive reference in the scout lit I'd appreciate it.

Dec 03, 2010 - Scoutmaster Paul

You won't find it defined. Any camping that your unit wants to count is allowed. The application just requires your unit leader's signature. If s/he says a hotel is 'camping' and signs it, then it counts.

Thanks. I appreciate your response.
