Service Points

Service points are accumulated when an FCF member volunteers his time (with no consideration for wages) in church, in community projects, in special needs organizations, or in humanitarian acts. He will receive one hour credit per hour of service including travel time. He continues to add his total hours together even after he has attained the next step. Projects are approved by the Chapter FCF Trappers Brigade Authorization Committee. In order to help track your hours, please click here to download a spreadsheet that will keep an accumulative total of your hours and can be printed at the end of each year and sent with your application. Please keep in mind that this will only work with the Old Timers since Young Bucks must still have their application signed by the leader of each project.

Steps of Recognition
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The three steps of recognition and the accumulated points needed to attain them are as follows:
- Company Trapper-50 total hours
- Bourgeois (pronounced boohz-wah') - 100 total hours
- Free Trapper-150 total hours
For each additional fifty (50) hours earned beyond 150 hours, the Free Trapper will receive a numeral to be placed on his Trapper Medal.
A District FCF Authorization Committee will review the points tabulated by the FCF members who qualify for recognition pins. Each FCF member needs to complete an application and be interviewed by the committee. During the interview the FCF member will share the details of his service project. Pictures, letters, artifacts, items of interest, and things learned, ejnoyed, or exprienced should all be shared when meeting with the committee.
Young Bucks must complete the service under the supervision of an adult leader. The leader may be a pastor, youth leader, commander, community leader, missionary, district official, project coordinator, coach, parent, or any other adult who can sign the application and verify what was done by the applicant.
