Northern Ridge District Honor Unit – 2026 Update

The Northern Ridge District Honor Unit Program will be temporarily suspended for 2026 as the District Commissioner Team works to review and revamp the program.

Our goal is to develop a refreshed Honor Unit Program that better recognizes unit achievements, encourages strong and sustainable Scouting programs, and aligns with the priorities of Northern Ridge District and the Atlanta Area Council.

We appreciate the continued dedication of our unit leaders and volunteers to delivering quality Scouting experiences for our youth. We look forward to introducing an improved Honor Unit Program for 2027 that celebrates unit success and encourages continued growth and excellence.

Thank you for your understanding and continued commitment to Scouting!

The 2025 Honor Unit Requirements document provides descriptions, rules, and requirements for the Northern Ridge Honor Unit Award per the different subdivisions of Scouting (Cub Scout/Scout BSA/Venturing/Sea Scout). Also included is a description of what units will be eligible for when attaining Honor Unit Status.

  • If an event has already occurred or registration for an event has already been closed, the unit may check off that requirement as done.
  • If you feel a requirement is unfair or discriminates against your unit, please discuss this issue with either your Unit Commissioner or the District Commissioner (Craig Ficik) and they will bring it up for discussion at the Commissioners Meeting.
  • If you have any questions about the Northern Ridge Honor Unit please feel free to contact your Unit Commissioner.
