Leadership As
a scout advances and reaches First Class, he needs to be assigned or
elected to a leadership position. The requirement for Star is at least
4-months of leadership, and 6-months for Life and 6-months for Eagle. A
scout may serve in a single position for an extended period of time and
use it for more than one rank. For example, if a scout becomes a troop
guide upon reaching First Class and earns his Star after 5-months, he
can continue as Troop Guide to earn his Life rank. Senior
Patrol Leader, Assistant Senior Patrol Leader and Patrol Leader
positions are elected positions. Other leadership positions are assigned
by the leadership ASM - Mr. Beall and the ASPL and then approved by the
SPL and Mr. Snyder. Star
