B.S.A. Troop 13

South Byron, NY

Life Help

Continuing to develop leadership skills, the Life Scout rank is earned by fulfilling additional leadership positions, service hours, and merit badges. A Life Scout is expected to be a role model and leader in the troop, providing guidance to new scouts and helping the troop however he can. Being a good leader can only be learned by doing and troop leadership positions allow the scout to make decisions, lead discussions, and encourage others.

Rank Requirements:

  1. Be active in your troop and patrol for at least six months as a Star Scout.
  2. Demonstrate Scout spirit by living the Scout Oath (Promise) and Scout Law in your everyday life.
  3. Earn five more merit badges (so that you have 11 in all), including any 3 more from the required list for Eagle. Scouts choose any 3 of the 15 Eagle required merit badges to fulfill this requirement. See the Eagle Help Page for the list of Eagle required merit badges.
