Youth Patriotism Awards
Freedom Award

Purpose:

The Patriot Awards were designed to lead youth in the United States to a greater understanding of the amazing legacy we were given by our founding fathers. This legacy has afforded every person in the United States abounding freedoms that are often taken for granted.

The focus of the Freedom Award is to give the participant a greater appreciation of the variety of freedoms that Americans enjoy. While working on this award, you will explore what you consider freedom, what the Declaration of Independence and Constitution say about it, and what your friends and neighbors believe about freedom. You will be exploring these freedoms through visits, interviews, polls, and participation in events that could not happen were it not for the freedom available in the United States.

The Freedom SILVER (Youth 6-10) and GOLD (Youth 11-18) awards will demonstrate and allow you to explore all of the amazing freedoms that our country provides us. We often live day by day without stopping to think about the freedom that we enjoy or the price that was paid by those brave Americans before us.

Award:

Each award has age-appropriate requirements and a number of electives. These medals will signify your accomplishments and encouraging others to do the same.

All requirements can be done with a unit, class, group, family, or individually. An adult should help you as you complete the requirements (and they are also a great source of information).

Along with the medals, you can earn Elective Stars that can be added to the ribbon portion of the medal. Once a medal has been earned, additional Elective Stars can be earned at any time (as long as you are still in the age group) and then added to your ribbon. The more you do the more you learn, earn and have fun.

All requirements must be completed during the age group of the award. Activities performed prior to the age group of the medal cannot be counted for the award. Adult counselors may take disabilities or exceptional circumstances into account when certifying completion of the award.
