Club Planning Note: The Honor Enrichment requirements for the Advanced levels of Explorers, Rangers, Voyagers and Guides are the same. Therefore you can teach a different honor for Requirement 1 and Requirement 2 each year that covers most of your club. Just don’t repeat the same honors over a 4 year cycle.
Honor Enrichment in other classes: Friend · Companion · Ranger · Voyager · Guide
