If you are interested in starting a Merit Badge, you need to find a Merit Badge Counselor and then “open” the Merit Badge by getting a signed “blue card” from Mr. Gerstein or Mr. Lynn. We have a Troop library of books, so please check with us before you buy one – we may already have it!
For Merit Badge “Worksheets” (used to help track completion as well as keeping completed work together) check the U.S. Scouting Service Project.
You may also be able to earn the Religious Emblem for your faith; more information is available from this BSA National page.
