For just $55 per session, Scouts can finish off the summer with completed merit badges on their sash. Scouts may sign up for a single day or all days if they choose. Each day is comprised of one Merit Badge class with over 20 classes to choose from over the summer.  Sessions will be offered Monday through Thursday from 9 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. at Camp Big Timber. 

The Scouts morning will consist of Merit Badge work, they will then have an hour for lunch, leading to a fun wild west themed program in the afternoon. Each day opens and closes with a flag ceremony.  Act now, courses fill up fast!

Please note: Classes might not be completed at camp. Most classes have prerequisites and some have work that will continue after class. Please work with your Scoutmaster and Unit Leader to locate a local Merit Badge Counselor after the class has ended to complete your badge work. All badges require Scouts seek Scoutmaster approval prior to signing up. 

Prerequisites and items to bring are located for each Merit Badge in the Class Catalog on the right hand side bar. Please download/read the catalog and come to class prepared with the proper materials and Pre-requisites done for your badges where possible. You will not earn the MB if you do not have the pre-req's done, but you can still sign up for and participate in the merit badge, you will just be signed off on the requirements you have completed.

All scouts need to bring Med Forms A & B, filled out. Forms are located in attachements.
