prairie Posted July 17, 2007 Share Posted July 17, 2007 No, not the little knot ones, ones like the Mile Swim or 50 Miler or Lifeguard. Last week I saw an adult awarded a Mile Swim patch, the distance wouldn't be hard for me but all those turns would! So which ones can I work for without the Uniform Police knocking on my door some morning? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gonzo1 Posted July 18, 2007 Share Posted July 18, 2007 Adults who are commissioners can earn the Commissioner's College patch with rockers for Basic, Bachelor's, Master's and Doctor's level rockers. Maybe World conservation too, but I'm not sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

emb021 Posted July 18, 2007 Share Posted July 18, 2007 ScoutNut pretty much hit them all. There are also: High Adventure Base participation patches (Philmont Arrowhead, etc.). OA Leadership in Service Award (yearly participation award) BSA Aquatics Instructor. Attending National Camping School entitles you to wear that patch. But its more of an attendence patch (similiar to 'earning' a camporee or training event patch). The Gold Hornaday award can be earned by Scouters (VERY difficult to get). CAN'T earn the World Conservation Award (only youth can). Not sure if adults can earn the Paul Bunyan Award. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
prairie Posted July 18, 2007 Author Share Posted July 18, 2007 Thankyou to all who replied with great info! I forgot to mention it but I think my council awards a very cold weather camping patch to adults if they are on the same campout where the boys earn it. I earned it twice as a boy but will hold off wearing it till earned as an adult as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gonzo1 Posted July 19, 2007 Share Posted July 19, 2007 There is also the "Trained" strip, but that's obvious. Also, for commissioners is the Arrowhead. Gonzo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GernBlansten Posted July 19, 2007 Share Posted July 19, 2007 I just earned the Philmont Arrowhead for our trek and conservation project. Flipped it over and admired the "Made in China" sticker on the back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
donert Posted July 23, 2007 Share Posted July 23, 2007 Don't forget the National Jamboree and the 5 for 5 National Jamboree rocker Leader Award (I have both from the 2005 National Jamboree). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gunny2862 Posted July 23, 2007 Share Posted July 23, 2007 Possibly the University of Scouting patch group? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
