* I will be away from home between July 5 and August 5, 2010 on various scouting activities.  If I receive your order during that time period, it will be delayed until I return.

Certificates for Recognition

A quality certificate is a great way to recognize someone or to nice way to show what you have done in scouting.  Below are a number of certificates that I am glad to personalize for you.  The actual sizes are 8.5" x 11".

The types of certificates include:

1. Registration in Scouting signed by West and Beard
   1. Hoover as honorary president
   2. Roosevelt as honorary president
3. Baden-Powell certificates
   1. Scout
   2. Scouter
   3. Commissioner
   4. Eagle Scout
4. Hornaday certificates signed by Hornaday
5. Old scout certificate useful for frames for letters
6. Early Scout Certificate for:
   1. Boy Scouts
   2. Wood Badge
   3. Scoutmaster
   4. Eagle Scout
7. Wood Badge
8. Powder Horn

It is important that you provide me any adjustments in wording you want, the titles of the people you want to sign the certificate, the date you want and any other information appropriate to the certificate.

I can also include Spanish (Español) wording as long as I have a good clear document to work with.  Any of the special marks needed for the Spanish language are available to me.

The certificates are printed on Ivory Granite paper or cardstock White and I can assure you that you will be pleased with the quality.  Because of printer limitations, there will be about two tenths of an inch around the edge that will not be printed on.  Any frame will cover this.  The Hoover, Roosevelt and Baden-Powell certificates can be printed as 8" x 10" with no border if requested.

The cost of most certificates is $5; for the Early Scout Certificates, it is $6 (most of this is for the ink used).  You can download a PDF Order Form or open a XLS Order Form for certificates.  These are not meant to replace official BSA certificates; they are intended to add enjoyment when recognizing others.

Wood Badge Venturer Staff

In 2005, the Wood Badge Staff I was on used Venturers on staff for the first time.  It was felt that a simple recognition would be a nice thing to do.  So with the approval of Old Baldy Council, the patch to the left was developed and given to the Venturers on staff.

I recognized that it would be nice to provide other courses with this patch so extras were made and are available for $2.00 each plus postage.  Please contact me at TheHiker@SageVenture.com to get more information.
