MERIT BADGE INFORMATION:

We request that you complete the worksheets for these merit badges before you arrive at the Museum.

Our Merit Badge Counselors will complete the Blue Cards or update Scoutbook online as needed for the Merit Badges to be turned in to the unit leader upon completion of the requirements. 

Some requirements cannot be completed at the museum on the day of your visit. 

Please have the Scouts review the requirements before your trip and complete as many on their own as possible. 

If you have questions please call or email the Museum Curator for help.

Please print the worksheets below and complete as many requirements as possible before arrival.
