CHEROKEE SCOUT RESERVATION
OUT LEAD. OUT SERVE. OUT ACHIEVE.

F.R.O.G.S. - Our first year camper program makes for a great week of fun and advancement!

F.R.O.G.S. - Fundamental Requirements of Good Scouting

The F.R.O.G.S. program is designed for Scouts who have just joined a troop and need to work on their rank requirements for Tenderfoot, Second Class, and First Class ranks. This will give Scouts the opportunity to work on merit badges either in the morning or afternoon, depending on when he signs up for the F.R.O.G.S. program.

Emphasis will be placed on the following skills:
  • First Aid
  • Knots and Lashings
  • Totin’ Chip
  • Fire Building
  • Map/Compass
​
Scouts that complete the program will be ready to pass off several requirements*. Just as important, the Scouts that participate in the program should return to the troop with some newly developed Scouting and campcraft skills.

Who should participate in the program? That is up to the Scoutmaster and camp leadership. The majority of the Scouts in this program will be 10 ½ and 11 years old as the program is geared towards boys who are new to Scouting or have just bridged from Webelos to Boy Scouting recently.

What to Bring (Most items can be found at our Old North State Scout Shop!)
  • Day pack
  • Compass
  • Boy Scout Handbook
  • Pocket Knife (to be used after earning the Totin’ Chip)
  • Paper and pencil
  • Bandana
  • Rain gear
  • Personal first aid kit

What do F.R.O.G.S. participants do for the rest of the day?
The following merit badges and activities are appropriate for first-year campers: Swimming, Catfish, Nature and Mammal Study, Reptile and Amphibian Study, Energy, Indian Lore, Leatherwork, First Aid, Pottery and Sculpture
