Hello there, I am completely new to scouting and in fact, the pack that my son belongs to is brand new so I don't have much guidance on how to do things. I am the assistant den leader for the tiger den. I have read and researched everywhere and can't find any guidance on this.
When awarding the boys their Tiger immediate recognition emblem, do you award it with the strings attached or not? When I bought them the strings are not already attached. I am just wondering if you attach the strings once the beads start being earned or do you go ahead and attach them before awarding the emblem. I need to know the answer of this quick!! I HAVE FOUR TIGERS READY TO EARN THIS TONIGHT AT OUR DEN MEETING.
Also, if you do attach the strings prior to awarding them, how do you secure them so that they will not fall off?? Thanks in advance for anyone that might be able to help me with this.
