Cub Scout Pack 260, Brookline NH

Religious Award Program

The Religious Award Program is open to every scout in Pack 260. It is easy and very rewarding. Read more about it below and if you are interested, there is information at the bottom on who to contact to get started!

A Cub Scout can easily earn religious awards provided he has the help of a parent or a close family member. Each Cub Scout who completes the program will be awarded a religious emblem knot patch (see patch below) and a very nice religious emblem medal (an example is the Light of Christ Catholic medal shown below) to wear on his uniform.

Workbook

Leaders can help parents acquire the appropriate religious emblem (award) workbook according to your denomination and the age/grade of your Cub Scout. These are available from the Scout office or from Pray Publishers. Workbooks are completed by the Cub Scouts over a few weeks or months with the advice, encouragement and help of his parent / close family member.

Upon completion of the workbook, there is a review and/or signoff by the Scout, the parent and the pastor or other church official. The submittal of the completion/signoff sheet or cards from the workbook depends on the denomination.

You and your Cub Scout can take from now until the end of summer to complete the program. There will be a special ceremony at the September pack meeting for all Scouts who complete the program.
