Steve Hoar asked on Sent: Friday, March 19, 1999 10:59 AM:

>SO, the quesiton I put before the group is..."How do you do it in
>your council?".

In our council, the unit turns in an advancement report to the Scout Shop
when they pick up rank patches and merit badges. The scout shop passes the
advancement reports to the council admin staff. One copy of the advancement
report is separated and routed to the appropriate DE. In our district, the
DE passes the advancement reports to the district advancement committee, who
totals up each months advancement fills out the monthly advancement report.

Each district publishes a merit badge counselor list which is included in
the unit's recharter package each year at program launch. All units in our
council recharter at the same time, so it is easier to distribute the lists
this way. I have heard that one district requests the scout to submit blue
cards with the Eagle application, but there is no way they can really check
up to 7 years worth of counselor lists or counselors from other districts or
councils. Our district position is that we trust the integrity of our
Scoutmasters.
