Sample First Year Program

This program starts in March and goes through December. It is meant as an example only. Your plan will need to fit in with the themes your troop has chosen and your specific calendar.

Notes:

• some of the dates are “open” and can be used for making up missing requirements, extra instructional time or anything else.
• this sample program (from March through December) is only 10 months, giving additional time for advancement to First Class within one year.
• Scouts who attend BSA summer camp will have completed many of these requirements in a summer camp first-year Scout program, in which case the sample program may need to be adjusted.
