Whether it's called Swim-Up or Advancement, how do we celebrate when youth progress through the Scouting movement?

Podcast TOPICs

What is advancement? How does advancement differ between Boy Scouts of America, Scouts Canada, and other Scouting organizations around the world? Is advancement age-restricted, or can it happen more organically? Should an individual youth's advancement be celebrated by a Scout Group? If so, how so?

Ken and Colin attempt to answer these questions, and also look at badge programs and — yes — Scouts Canada's Canadian Path program as well.

Mentioned in the episode: The Scoutmaster CG Podcast, by Clarke Greene.
