Merit Badge Blast 2017

For this year's Council Camp - Merit Badge Blast we went up planning on rain, but not so much planning for freezing temperatures.  We had rain coats, and sweatshirts, and all, but it got really cold!  We were ok because they moved all the merit badge classes that they could into the lodge, but there were a few, like archery and rifle shooting that had to be done outside and were a bit chilly!
All the scouts want to do the shooting merit badges like archery and rifle shooting, but they are some of the hardest ones to get because they require skill, whereas lots of the other merit badges just require memorization and book work.

My son earned Citizenship in the Community, Citizenship in the Nation, Indian Lore, and a partial on Archery!  It was a great experience for him to get him started on earning merit badges and see how fun they can be!
