This Wednesday (11/12) we will be working on the personal fitness merit badge. Some of the boys have already started working on this badge and so we are trying to give those who are partially through it an opportunity to complete the merit badge. As we work on merit badges we ask that each boy scout come prepared with the following:
  • Pen or Pencil
  • 3 Ring Binder (to keep merit badge worksheets)
  • Scout Handbook

Family Life Merit Badge

A few weeks ago we started the family life merit badge. The boys completed some of the requirements. As we reviewed this required merit badge it became clear that this merit badge will require a lot of support from the parents. Our goal is to finish the requirements for the merit badge 90 days from now. This will require that they keep a chore chart and participate in a number of other family activities during that time. On January 28th we will have the merit badge councilor come review and sign of the requirements for the boys. If you would like a copy of the worksheet for this merit badge click the merit badge worksheets link and download the Family Life worksheet.

If you have questions comment or concerns on the family life merit badge please respond to this post.
