Discovery Club - Bahamas National Trust

All activities in Discovery Club lead to Badges. Badges are the Club's awards of success and are received upon the successful completion of a Badge Program. At Club meetings and Club events members participate in specific activities related to a specific Badge Program. Each Badge has a picture symbol that represents that subject area. Badges for Explorers are trimmed in red and badges for Guardians are trimmed in blue. These same colors are represented in the badge booklets, so that the Explorers have red booklets and the Guardians have blue.

Badges are earned over a period of 6 weeks. In total they can take 7.5 - 9 hours to cover the work required to earn a badge which is achieved over six 1.5 hour meetings. Different badges can be earned each term of Discovery Club and it is possible to earn 4 badges in one year.

If a member misses any of the clubs it is their responsibility to get the material covered during his/her absence. Special badges like camping take longer to earn - sometimes up to two years.
