Merit Badge University 2024
BLUE RIDGE COUNCIL MERIT BADGE UNIVERSITY
Welcome to Blue Ridge Council Merit Badge University! We will be it over 2 weekends again this year, so make sure to sign up for both weekends! The first weekend (1/20) will be mainly at Buncombe Street Methodist Church (BSMC) and various satellite locations (maps attached). The second weekend(1/27) will mostly be at Roper Mountain Science Center (RSMC) for a weekend of STEM merit badges.
Don't see a merit badge you want to take? Check back DAILY as we are finalizing our class instructors and more classes will become available as we verify instructor availability.
We have a limited number of classes and class maximums this year but we will be adding classes as we confirm instructors and safety so check back often. If you do not pay at the time of initial registration, this mainly applies to troops registering their Scouts versus individual Scouts, make sure you "book" the registration. Contact Scott Kerr to verify as if it not "booked" or paid it will not show the Scouts in classes as they are not fully registered. We hope BRC MBU will allow Scouts to have new experiences as they travel on their journey to 1st Class or Eagle Scout. This event is not for Cub Scouts, Webelos or Arrow of Light Scouts.
Scouts will need pen, paper and merit badge worksheets (instructors will not have them). If a class goes past 1pm, they will need to bring a lunch. Please see additional instructions under each merit badge.
Don't miss out on Adult Training offered: Scoutmaster Specific, Committee Training
We look forward to another great event and thank you for supporting our event!
