Three or four times a year the troop holds a Court of Honor. They are announced well in advance and appear on the troop calendar.
At this special event, Scouts advancing in rank are honored along with their families, and Scouts earning merit badges and other awards are recognized. Merit badges earned since the last Court of Honor are presented here, along with the Scout's copy of the Applicant's Record from the Blue Card. Keep that record in a safe place; it is the best proof the badge was earned.
Courts of Honor may be held outdoors or at other sites to accommodate all our guests. Scouts wear the full field uniform with merit badge sash.
Eagle Scout Courts of Honor are separate ceremonies planned with each Eagle's family. Recent ones are in the news, and the full list of Troop 4 Eagle Scouts is on the Eagle Scouts page.
