Task · part of 9. Show experience in camping

9(c). Carry out a conservation project

Required Often forgotten

On any of these camping experiences, approved by the landowner and your counselor.

Notes and warnings

Note. The conservation project is the third part of requirement 9, behind the twenty nights and the two activities, and is easy to read past. It needs approval from the landowner and from your counselor, so it is worth raising early rather than at the end.
