Pandemic-prompted changes to Scouts BSA advancement requirements expire March 1

Over the past year and a half of the pandemic, Scout units have modified their procedures to ensure that Scouts have a safe, meaningful and memorable journey along the Scouting trail. (For the latest guidance, consult the BSA’s COVID-19 FAQs.)
