Summer Camp 2010 merit badge preregistration

On Monday, June 7th each scout was presented with a note card listing the merit badges they have been pre-registered for at Summer Camp 2010.

We have 4 formal periods dedicated to merit badge classes, with a 5th optional period in the afternoon for elective badges.

Badges have been selected based on instructor availability, scheduling, and to present rank advancement opportunities. Several Eagle required badges will be offered in addition to the waterfront badges.

If you have any questions or concerns regarding the badges your son has been pre-registered for, please contact Mr. Chase.

For 5th period electives, each scout should review the following offerings which were included with the notecard, and should rank their first, second, third and fourth choices. Classes will be offered based on interest and class sizes will be determined based on similar criteria.

5th period choices, and any changes to merit badge scheduling must be returned to Mr. Chase by the June 14th meeting.

For the 2010 only merit badges we are aiming to have as many scouts achieve these as possible, and will work with the scouts to assure all are presented an opportunity to complete these.
