The date your Troop Scouter looked over your plan

Make a copy and show your plan to the AC or DAC Program Troop or Troop designate. The Court
of Honour, Troop Scouter should sign below and return the Application to you for completion.

Keep in mind that it is easier to fill out your application as you complete the requirements, rather
than waiting until the deadline in April and trying to remember what you did and when you did it.

It is also advisable to keep a log of all your leadership hours, in case they are challenged.
