A merit badge college is a chance for your Scout to earn several merit badges, including the ones that are required for Eagle rank. Some of the badges offered may be ones that aren’t as readily available through the the home troop.
Classes are on a “first come, first served” basis so the earlier you register, the more likely you’ll be able to sign up for the classes you want. Space will be limited, especially the Eagle required classes. Valley’s District’s Merit Badge College is open to all districts.
Again this year, they are offering the Merit Badge Completion Clinic. You will find it listed among the other classes on this registration. During registration select new Merit Badges desired in periods 1-4 and the Completion Clinic during period 4-5. Bring your partially completed Merit Badge Blue Cards, slips and summer camp reports, plus your completed prior unfinished work. You are expected to complete unfinished work prior to coming to the Clinic. Counselors will review your work. Bring photos, work, or other documentation of completion of unfinished requirements.
Don’t pass up on this opportunity – sign up as soon as possible!
Peace,
Jon C Strauss
Scoutmaster,
Troop 640
