NEW!!!!

Virtual Merit Badge classes.

Same excellent program but now available on-line, at home. Participation would require computer access and ability to log on to Bluejeans Network for video conferencing. Program will begin at 9 am and will continue with intermittent breaks through the day to approximately 4 pm. $40 per day. A session with a slash(/) in the title means the participants will work on both Merit Badges during the day. There is no splitting the program. Dependent on the instructor one or the other class can be started first or they can be intermingled. There is no guarantee that one particular class will be given at one particular time during the day.

Implementation:

Due to the structure of this program, submission of the Merit Badge Workbook (filled out from class participation) and copy of registration receipt for the class will be required for sign off on completed requirements on the blue card. They can be scanned and emailed or sent via regular mail to Mimi Bauer; 1001 Davis St.; San Leandro, CA 94577 or mimi.bauer@scouting.org. Scouts will be responsible for obtaining the Merit Badge workbook through http://usscouts.org/. Active participation in the class is also required. A link to the "Bluejeans" virtual class will be provided prior to beginning of instruction and must be opened and ready for class on time.

As the situation develops additional classes may be added to this site.

Merit Badge subjects can be challenging, lengthy and technical. Many require work outside the classroom setting; therefore, it is most likely that Scouts will NOT complete all the requirements for a selected Merit Badge in one day.
