We do pretty much the same thing except that each month two badges are
offered... one is usually an "Eagle required" badge and the second is
something like Golf...Art.... or Plumbing ((thats right.. next month is
plumbing and I have no idea how the PLC selected this one)
Please know that we do not run through the badges... though I say each
month... First Aid is taking many meetings away from Troop meetings....
As you can imagine the "Eagle" badge gests great responce from the
younger scouts and most earn it while the second well... i guess it
depends on how the pipes are running at home...
one thing i can tell you though (as Advancement Chair) by the time that
most Scouts reach First Class the have the necessary badges for Star
just my interjection
