Merit Badge Prerequisites
Pre-MBM requirements for each merit badge class are listed with the class description in the Class Catalog attached to the right.

Scouts must complete all merit badge prerequisite requirements.  Scouts are expected to read the Merit Badge Pamphlet and make notes in the CR MBM Workbook BEFORE the MBM class.  Otherwise, Scout will receive only a partial completion for the merit badge.

Scouts must bring their completed MB Workbook; a Merit Badge Blue Card(s) signed by unit leader for each badge; and bring any pre-MBM requirement materials or evidence or their work with them to MBM.

All Scouts (including Webelos who recently crossed over to Boy Scouts) must be registered in a Boy Scout unit in order to earn Boy Scout requirements for advancement.  You may turn in application at MBM event.

MBM Specific Workbooks
Merit Badge Workbooks, which are specific to the 2017 Crow River MBM class offerings, can be downloaded from the Crow River District web site.  Make sure you download and print the correct 2017 CR MBM Workbook.
