National Honor Patrol Requirements

I think it was Michael Scholtens who brought it up, but here are the requirements for National Honor Patrol. I think it should be a goal for all of you guys as most of the requirements are pretty easy or done for you already (IE patrol name and flag, camping trip, wear uniform, PLC meetings, 8 members in patrol).

Your patrol can earn the award by doing the following over a period of three months:

• Have a patrol name, flag, and yell. Put your patrol design on equipment and use your patrol yell. Keep patrol records up to date.
• Hold two patrol meetings every month.
• Take part in at least one hike, outdoor activity, or other scouting event.
• Complete two good turns or service projects approved by the patrol leaders' council.
• Help two patrol members advance one rank.
• Wear the full uniform correctly (at least 75 percent of the patrol's membership).
• Have a representative attend at least three patrol leaders' council meetings.
• Have eight members in the patrol or increase patrol memberships over the previous three months.
