Regardless of your troop affiliation or rank, all Boy Scouts are invited to participate. You are offered the choice of one all day merit badge session, or two half day sessions. Decide how you want to participate by looking at the schedule of merit badge workshops on this page. When you select your merit badges, consider the degree of difficulty and the length of time required to complete the badge. You will have the opportunity to earn up to two merit badges. See the merit badge selections and requirements (see official Boy Scout MB pamphlets or worksheets at www.meritbadge.org).

Only in 2010! In commemoration of the 100th anniversary of Boy Scouting, we are pleased to offer the Boy Scout Historic Merit Badge program at this year’s midway. These four badges (Signaling, Pathfinding, Tracking and Carpentry) are being brought back only in 2010 so this is a unique opportunity for Boy Scouts. We will be offering all four merit badges at the midway. Note that the badges must be completed by December 31, 2010.

In addition to the Historic Merit Badge program, we will be offering over 30 merit badges including most Eagle Scout required merit badges. Here is the full list of the merit badges planned.
