Ideas, hints, and techniques that can help more youth earn an award:

• Have a booth at Scout Expos to reach youth
• Have a booth at University of Scouting or Pow Wows to reach leaders
• Get some space on the council web site that discusses the awards
• Get information into newsletters that go to youth
• Get information into LCMS District/ELCA Synod newsletters to reach churches
• Have a booth at a ELCA Synod/LCMS District meeting to reach adults
• Put information into church bulletins, especially Scout Sundays
• Send a letter to pastors in your area telling them of the program and encouraging them to use award programs and offering your assistance
• Encourage churches to set classes for any who would like to receive the award. Can be led by Pastor or youth workers or adult members.
