 Historic Trails Award
|
This Award is meant for Boy Scouts.
Decide for yourself if it is appropriate for your younger scouts or not. |
To earn the Historic Trails award, members of your unit must plan and participate in a historic activity.
See a list of Approved Historic Trails at the national BSA site.
| |
A unit historic activity requires members to:- Locate a historic trail or site and study information relating to it. (This information may be obtained from an adult historic society, public library, or from people living near the trail or the site.)
- Hike or camp 2 days and 1 night along the trail or in the vicinity of the site.
- Cooperate with an adult group such as a historic society to restore and mark all or part of this trail or site. (This may be done during the hike or overnight camp.) Or cooperate with such a group to plan and stage a historic pageant, ceremony, or other public event related to this trail or site : such event should be large enough to merit coverage by the local press.
- Your unit leader must then file the Historic Trails Award Application with your council service center.
