Presented to Scouts and Scouters who accumulate 100 or more below-freezing points in a season, between October 1st and May 30th.

How It Works:

• Participants earn one point for each degree below freezing (32°F) recorded during an overnight campout.
• A camping night must be at least eight hours and each night camped counts toward your point total, meaning if you camp 2 nights you would get points for both nights.
• Make-up nights and backyard camping are permitted for those who miss outings due to illness or other valid reasons.
• Points cannot be carried over to the next season.

Recognition:

• Scouts who complete the challenge can earn a 100 Degrees of Frost Award patch.
• Unit leaders are responsible for certifying eligible campers.
• The award can be earned multiple times.

Price:

• $2 per patch. (Price does not include tax or shipping costs)
