A simple system for keeping track of completed badge work
The ScoutDocs Badge Record is a time-tested and simple system for keeping track of completed badge work. It consists of several pages of grid paper. Down the side of each page is a place for the names of up to 32 Scouts. Across the top are the badges and their requirements. A simple check mark indicates a completed requirement or badge. One can tell at a glance where people are situated in their badge work. Filling in the chart after an event where several Scouts completed the same requirement is simple and requires no page flipping. The one drawback of this design is that one needs to periodically copy the entire record on to new sheets as new Scouts join and old ones go up to the next section. The time spent here, however, is greatly made up for by the time saved when reading and updating the badge records. This record is currently available for the Scouts Canada Scout badge scheme. This is provided in PDF.
