This activity completes Requirement 5a. Explain Requirement 10. Requirement 10 can be done at the Scout's campsite and can include the teaching of a variety of skills to Scouts not taking the Merit Badge. The Scoutmaster or SPL should sign a note when this requirement has been completed. Announce the start location for this afternoon.
Controls can be off trails, but in well defined areas.
More off trail shortcuts will now be encouraged. Be sure catching features exist to keep all Scouts on the map. With the completion of this course, Requirement 7a will be complete. All boys should complete Requirement 9 by the end of this lesson. Some should return with notes completing Requirement 10.
