# Free certificates for youth groups and scouts

URL: https://dyetub.com/certificates/youth-groups

Fill-in certificates for the awards your program does not print for you: skills, service, campouts and the volunteers who make them happen. Built for youth groups, scout troops, clubs and camps.

## For the volunteer running the meeting

Youth-group leaders, scout leaders, club advisors, camp counselors, committee chairs and the parent who got handed the awards folder. The green traditional design above is the usual choice, and the brown, gold and leafwork borders have the same outdoorsy feel.

## Awards your program does not supply

Official ranks and badges usually arrive with their own cards. The certificates leaders print here are for everything else:

- **Outdoor skills:** first fire, first knot board, map and compass, knife safety, first-aid practice, cooking a full meal outdoors.
- **Campouts and hikes:** longest hike, first overnight, best campsite, fastest tent pitch, rain survivor.
- **Service:** hours on a service project, food-drive totals, a park cleanup, flag ceremonies led.
- **Clubs and camps:** camper of the week, cleanest cabin, best project at the showcase, most improved swimmer, talent-show star.
- **Races and build nights:** fastest car, best paint job, most creative design, best sportsmanship. Print one for every entrant, not only the winners.
- **Leaders and parents:** the drivers, the cooks, the treasurer, the leader who is stepping down after six years. These are the certificates most likely to be framed.
- **Rank-up and crossover nights:** a personal certificate alongside the official one, with a line about something that scout did this year.

## Wording that works at a meeting

Titles are read aloud, so keep them short and specific: "Outdoor Skills Award," "Service Project Champion," "Fastest Car." Use the description for the detail: *"For pitching a tent in the rain, building a safe fire, and helping the younger campers do the same."* Sign as the leader with your role under your name; use the second line for a committee chair or the youth leader of the troop or club.

## Printing for a crowd

Awards nights can mean thirty certificates. Fill in the first one, print it as a check, then change only the name each time. Pick **landscape** in the print dialog and raise the print quality so the green border does not come out washed; [printing tips](/printing-tips) walks through both. A box of 50 card-stock sheets from the office-supply store covers a whole program year. If the group printer is black-and-white, the greyscale leafwork and circles designs are built for it.

## No budget line needed

Everything here is free, with no account and no email, so a troop, club or camp running on dues and popcorn money can recognize every kid at every meeting.
