Requirement

9.0.2.2. Work begins after the Life Scout board of review

Required Often forgotten

Work on a project, planning included, begins after the Life board of review. That is not meant to stop an enthusiastic Star Scout from talking to a Scoutmaster, a religious leader or a principal about what a good project might be.

Notes and warnings

Tip. The commonest reading of this is too strict. Nothing stops a Star Scout talking to a Scoutmaster, a religious leader or a principal about what a good project might be. What begins after the Life board of review is work on the project, planning included.
