A quick reminder to bring your handbooks to troop meetings. There is often time to work on rank requirements, so you need your book to record your achievements. At meetings, scouts are shown and taught an advancement skill. Scouts can practice on their own with the help of their handbook and other scouts. At a later meeting, scouts can demonstrate the skill to a leader, who will sign it off in their handbook.
