Merit Badge Counselors are continuing to work with a group of scouts for their First Aid Merit Badge and another group of scouts for their Personal Management Merit Badge. By all accounts, both of these programs have been progressing very well.
We have another Counselor, Julie Palmer, who has offered to instruct a small group of scouts for the Art Merit Badge. This will be a one day program (actually 2 hours or so) where a scout can complete all of the requirements for this merit badge. Ms. Palmer will run this class on Saturday, December 5th at the church hall from 10:00 am- 12:00 noon.
I will have a sign-up sheet on Thursday, December 3rd (the next troop meeting). We will have to limit the size of this class (probably no more than 8 scouts); therefore, I am also looking to see if I can arrange for another merit badge to offer on the same day and time. If you are interested in the Art merit badge, then please sign up on 12/3.
I will let everyone know if I am able to identify another merit badge program for that day. Stay tuned……..
