Special Leader Awards

These are a collection of different awards for different occasions, different jogs or those special people. These are just a beginning for you to build on. As a Scouter you will soon learn to adapt and to use the resources available to you. These awards can be used by all our brothers and sisters the world over, all you have to do is substitute your local stuff where need be.

		Remember these are AWARDS. How you make the presentation is just as important as the award themselves. So ham it up!! Especially with some of the more humorous awards. Most require about 5 minutes of your time to make, most even less. If it costs you money then you flunk Scouting 101.
