The Court of Honor
Courts of Honor are formal gatherings for Scouts, families, and guests where the troop and troop members are recognized for their achievements. All Scouts who have advanced in rank or earned merit badges since the last Court of Honor, are recognized. We typically have three per year.
Be Prepared
Being prepared means looking ahead and planning accordingly. Be sure to schedule your Scoutmaster Conference and/or Board of Review well in advance.
We can usually accommodate up to three Boards of Review and one Scoutmaster conference at a meeting. Signups are first-come, first served.
Following these tips will help make the Court of Honor smooth and stress free. Showing up in your full, neat, field uniform will make you look sharp. It shows that you take yourself and your fellow Scouts seriously. It demonstrates respect for Scouting. It signals that you respect your audience.
All that just by making an effort to present yourself formally and neatly.
The same is true for how you conduct yourself. Being as disciplined as you can when marching, presenting colors, or just standing demonstrates your skill as well as all the forms of respect mentioned above. When you don’t do your best it communicates to the people around you that they aren’t worth your best effort. So…do your best to represent yourself, your family, and your troop with pride!
