Troop 23 Scouts are invited to participate in Troop 933’s 7th Annual Merit Badge Muster, a local event offering a range of badges and opportunities to advance in rank and skill. This is a fantastic chance for Scouts to make progress on merit badges they’ve already started, meet new counselors, and learn from experienced mentors in our local Scouting community.
Scouts must come prepared with blue cards signed by their Scoutmaster. This is not a teaching event but a focused day for Scouts to demonstrate completed requirements and receive sign-offs for their hard work.
👉 This is not a Troop 23 trip, but individual Scouts and families may choose to attend and coordinate with each other.
Registration: https://scoutingevent.com/640-bkmuster25
This is an official Scouting event. All Scouts attending must be in their official full Class-A Scouting America uniform
