Historical Merit Badge Program

From Joel: I encourage all boys to look at these merit badges and try to earn them. They will count towards Eagle, however the program will end at the end of this year. There are four merit badges that they are offering Carpentry, Pathfinding, Signaling and Tracking. If anyone has questions about these merit badges, they can contact me.

To get started right now, visit http://www.scouting.org/scoutsource/BoyScouts/ and click on "Advancement and Awards" in the left column.

Another program the National council is offering is called "Celebrating 100 Years – A year Celebration". This program looks at five different areas of scouting where there are requirements for each of five areas. This program is not just for the scouts. It is offered to adult leaders as well. This program ends at the end of the year as well and I encourage everyone to earn all of the badges. You can learn more about it from scouting.org.
