The Eagles Nest Merit Badge Fairs are an opportunity for scouts to work on Eagle-required merit badges in a group setting.

DISCLAIMER: It will not be possible to complete any of the merit badges in a single fair session.  Each merit badge will have either work to be done before the class, work to be done after the class, or both. If there is post-work, the scout will have approximately three months to complete the work before the next Eagles Nest Merit Badge fair at which time they can speak with the merit badge counselor to get their blue card signed off the for the completed requirements. Scouts also have the option to complete the rest of the badge with a different counselor (if they have one.)   

Each Scout will select one merit badge to work on during this session. Lunch will be provided
