Merit Badges
Please consider becoming a merit badge counselor. There are several more Eagle required merit badges we would like covered in the troop, plus over 100 other merit badges that cover every interest from bugs to computers.
For a complete list of merit badges, look in the Boy Scout Handbook or the Boy Scout Requirements book (available at the Scout Store) or click on www.meritbadge.com.
TROOP LIBRARY: Our troop has a library of merit badge books that can be checked out - click here to see a listing of these books. Merit badge books can also be purchased at the Scout Store.
CLINICS: Each year the Pathfinder District holds a Spring and Fall Merit Badge Clinic. At these clinics merit badge counselors are available to sign off on completed work. In addition, our troop's Committee Chairman, Advancement Chairman, and Scoutmaster have a list of all the merit badge counselors within Pathfinder District.
NAPOWAN: One of the easiest ways to earn merit badges is to attend summer camp at Camp Napowan in Wisconsin. The number of merit badges you can earn in one week at Napowan depends solely on how many you want to earn. You can find out more about the merit badges available at Napowan at www.nwsc.org/BOYSCOUTcamping.php. Note that some merit badges have prerequisite requirements.
