I am one of those den leaders that was stunned when a scout (WII) submitted for 26 belt loops/pins to be presented at B&G just weeks before cross-over. This cost our pack a significant amount of money we don't have and in my opinion, overshadowed the AofL ceremony. Our pack has only started to present loops/pins in the past three years, so there has never been a real "policy" or even understanding about how to incorporate the program into our overall scouting program. There are only two families - and now three - that are going gangbusters after these awards. In response to this, I am trying to develop a policy for our Pack. What policy does your pack have? Looking for - cost - who pays? - how many? do you allow them to earn them all? just the ones required for advancements?
