Letter of Recommendation Form (click)

The Board of Review is an opportunity to review of the Scout's attitudes, accomplishments and his acceptance of Scouting's ideals. Troop 135's Committee requests each scout to complete a "Recommendation Form" for each Rank to be presented at the Board of Review.  This form should be signed by a person that is not a family member.  A copy of the form may be obtained from the Committee Chairperson or Advancement Chairperson at the Troop Meeting, or download the form in acrobat reader format (PDF) by clicking the link below.

Timing of Boards of Review

Troop 135's policy is to allow up to two Scoutmaster Conferences and BOR's per Troop meeting.  It is the scout's responsibility to schedule with the Advancement Chairperson.  Although notices will be send to parents as each scout meets the requirements, each scout must make an effort to schedule the Scoutmaster's Conference and Board of Review for each Rank. (Committee Mtg 7/12/06)

The Scout Emblem

  1. The three points of the trefoil stand for the three parts ofthe Scout Oath.
  2. The shape of the Scout badge means that a Scout can point the right way in life as truly as does a compass in the field.
  3. There are two stars on the badge. They symbolize truth and knowledge.
  4. The eagle and shield stand for freedom and a Scout's readiness to defend that freedom.
  5. The scroll bearing the Scout motto is turned up at the ends as a reminder that a Scout smiles as he does his duty.
  6. The knot at the bottom of the scroll serves as a reminder of the Scout slogan, Do a Good Turn Daily.
