Ceremony 1
Leader: In the days of chivalry, after a squire had earned the right to carry sword and shield, it was customary to retire to the privacy of the chapel on the evening before he was to be made a knight. There, surrounded by his weapons, he prayed that he might live worthy of the honor that was his, and that he might never bring disgrace on his knighthood, either in thought or in deed. Just as highly as the knights of old, we who are the Scouts of today value the distinction that is ours. As a First Class Scout, you have earned the right to demonstrate and abide by the code to which a true and mature Scout is forever bound by his Scout Oath and Law. Do you accept this greater responsibility of First Class Scout in the spirit of service of the knights of old?
Scout: I do.
Leader: In qualifying for First Class rank, you have advanced from Scout hiker to more skillful living in the outdoors for longer periods of time. In this experience, you have become a Scout camper, better able to take care of yourself and others, as did the knights of old. As we present you with your First Class badge, I charge you to continue your development as a Scout camper, so that you may better serve your fellow men in the spirit of chivalry. (Leader presents First Class badge and congratulates Scout and his parents.)
