Troops is a great way to outreach in your community! Partner up with businesses in the community and share flyers with your local corps Troop info. Need posters?

To ensure all youth involved, encourage parents to fill out this application for your corps files that includes permission signatures and other personal information.

Registrations are completed through Corps Management. Access is granted to TSA employees upon approval from your Corps Officer (contact your DYS for access).

Emblems

Every month, Explorers can earn up to two emblems. These emblems encourage learning, development, and positive social habits, while being Christ-centered.

What do I need to print?

  • Explorer Badgework– Includes all requirements and activities to be completed by the Explorer.

High Awards

Have the Explorers in your troop earned eight emblems? They already qualify for a High Award! Completion of this program involves both earning emblems and attaining High Awards. Check out these resources that guide Explorers and leaders to be on track to achieve these recognitions.

  • High Award Applications – All awards require a completed application endorsed by the Corps Officer and sent to DHQ. Click here for all applications!
  • Explorers High Award Chart – All registered Explorers qualify for a printed chart sent by THQ. These charts allow the Explorer to stay on course and work on attaining more emblems to achieve high awards.
  • Leader Spreadsheets – Similar to the charts, Leader Spreadsheets assist and guide the leader to stay on track of the individual record for each Explorer.
