No Registration Needed

Join us at the Council office to earn both Crime Prevention and Fingerprinting Merit Badges.

Preventing crime, which can be as simple as reducing the opportuntities for crime to occur, is far less costly than apprehending and bringing legal action against those who break the law and it helps save people from the anguish of being victims.

In earning the Fingerprinting merit badge, Scouts will learn about and use an important technique that is used by law enforcement officers, along with other materials like matching dental records and DNA sampling, to help identify amnesia victims, missing persons, abducted children, and others.

There will be two sessions to earn the Merit Badges, Scouts must attend both, or they will receive a partial completion.
