Maritime Merit Badge Academy
Saturday, April 11, 2026
  Bayfront Maritime Center, Erie, PA 

This event will allow scouts to work on merit badges related to the maritime theme.  We will be opening registration for French Creek Council Scouts on February 1st.  Out of council scouts will have a chance to register starting March 1st to fill any open spots.  There are very limited spots for this event.  

$10 fee includes 3 sessions for the day, lunch and event patch. There will be Merit Badge classes as well as a general Maritime Skills class available for Scouts to Chose from.  

**Please keep in mind there will be pre-rewuisites for most merit badges, and scouts who are not able to complete these before the calss will not receive a completed merit badge.  There also may be items required after the event and scouts will need to reach out to their counselor to prove completion of these items. **
