A Local Tour Permit Application is required for:

If you are taking your troop to the local pool to work on the Swimming Merit
Badge - YES, you need a tour permitt.

Please remember that the tour 
	permit application must be filed online two 
	weeks

in advance of scheduled activity for proper clearance.

You do not need a tour permit for local activities like:

If you are taking your pack to the local fire house - NO, you do not need a
tour permit.

If you are meeting to unit at the church/school to work on a service project
(including Eagle Service Projects) - NO, you do not need a tour permit.

need a tour permit.
