Join Merit Badge Counselors at South Shore YMCA Nature Center for an opportunity to

rank!

This program is designed to help you understand the concept of sustainability—
meeting our needs without compromising the ability of future generations to meet theirs.

We’ll explore what sustainability means in everyday life around our homes, schools and
businesses and discover practical ways we can all live greener. You’ll learn how small
changes can make a big impact and discuss how you can share this knowledge through
your Scouting, proving that sustainability is not just important but also easy!

Come ready to learn, work, and have fun as we move towards a more sustainable
future together!

Check-in will begin at 12 pm with the Badge session starting at 12:05 pm.

Bonus Opportunity:

We’re also offering a Morning Merit Badge session for those looking to earn two
badges in one day.
