Western Tech Merit Badge University/ Troop Leader Specific Classes- (East El Paso)
Merit Badge University hosted by Western Technical College offers an opportunity to work on up to two Merit Badges in one day. Scouts are offered a diverse set of Merit Badges that will be either partially earned or completed on the day of the event (contingent upon the completion of pre-requisites prior to Merit Badge College). Scouts will be able to enroll in up to two separate Merit Badge classes of their choice. Enrollments will be awarded on a first-come-first-served basis.
Coinciding with MBU, there will be adult trainings for any new and current leaders for both Cub Scouts adults and Scouts adults. Every scout deserves a trained leader.
