The 2018 Old Dominion District Merit Badge Registration has been postponed to April 7, 2018.

Registration is closed

Cost:  $18

No walk-in registrations accepted!

Additional lunch tickets are available for $10 each.  Lunch for participating scouts is included in the registration fee.
 
All current merit badge requirements can be found at:
http://www.scouting.org/Home/BoyScouts/AdvancementandAwards/MeritBadges.aspx

UNIFORM:  Field uniform (Class A uniform) mandatory. 
Merit Badge Cards: Scouts will be required to turn in neatly filled-out merit badge cards, signed by a unit leader, to their Merit Badge Counselor as they enter their session(s).  Merit Badge cards will be processed and returned to the scout before they leave the event.
MERIT BADGES:  Scouts may take up to six (6) hours of merit badge instruction (one 6-hr. session or two 3-hr. sessions).  The purpose of this Merit Badge Jamboree is to provide scouts an opportunity to work with qualified counselors on badges they might not be able to take at the Troop level.  It is NOT to make it easy for them to earn lots of badges quickly.  In order to complete the requirements for merit badges offered at the Merit Badge Jamboree, Scouts should expect to do a significant amount of work either before or after the event.
