I've got two questions. I know how I handle these two situations but we've
been discussing it in my outpost and section and I was wondering how others
handle them.
First, when a boy moves up from Buckaroo's to Pioneers do you make him do the
recruit requirements before he can begin working on his Powder Horn. The
situation is this. The boy has earned everything in Buckaroo's, all the way
through Top Hand. He is always at meetings unless he's sick or his family is
on vacation and he is 9. He can quote the motto, pledge, code and all the
meanings of the points of the code. My main question is, do you make him
attend three Pioneer meetings before he can start working on Powder Horn?
Second, you have a boy who's working on (for example) the Tomahawk
advancement. It requires he camp out for 1 night (using the patrol method).
The Camping Merit also requires (I believe) 10 night of camping. Do you
count this 1 night he used for Tomahawk as one of the 10 for the Camping
merit or do those 10 nights have to be completely independent of nights used
for other advancements or awards?
Thanks in advance!
Michael
