Merit Badge Counselor
Along with ranks, Boy Scouts can also earn Merit Badges, however, they need a trained adult. A Merit Badge Counselor is an adult at least 18 years old, who can assist in this training. The Merit Badge Counselor would walk through the requirements, which may only take a couple of hours a week for a couple of weeks.
For example: You are a trained mechanic. A Scout is interested in earning a Merit Badge in Automotive Mechanics and got approval. You would check to see that the Scout has a basic understanding of this topic. It is up to the Scout to complete the materials on his own.
Another example: You are an avid bird watcher and want to share your knowledge with someone who has the same interests. A Scout Patrol would like to earn a badge in Bird Study. You help them to identify various birds using a field guide, choose the right binoculars, and build a bird feeder.
Feel free to contact us, and we will help get you started.
