If you are having trouble registering scouts, carefully read the information on the help tab.
If you send an email that does not include the information we need to help you, it wastes time and will get promptly deleted.
Test drive the new site (in progress) at New Meritbadge.Info.Leave comments at our Facebook page.

Notice!!! Meritbadge.Info will switch to the new site with BSA validation Friday morning March 13th.

If you wish to start using this site today, click here to launch meritbadge.info/mbn2

Adults must enter their BSA Number, DOB, First and Last name as it appears on their BSA ID card. We will query BSA and get back an answer. At this point one of three things can happen:
1) Your registration is verified - you can continue using Meritbadge.info normally
2) You are not registered or your registration has lapsed - your prior rights are revoked and you get the read-only screens that you see before your login
3) You are registered but your YPT has expired - your prior rights are revoked and you get the read-only screens that you see before your login

You have had at least two months to get yourself registered and complete YPT training. If you feel your validation is not working, send us an email with the four data items listed and we will validate your entry.

We have no control over what is on file at BSA. If everything matches your BSA ID card, there should be no issues. If not, your validation will fail.

Why are we doing this?
1. To provide higher security and validation of all adult users.
2. To clean up the mess we've accumulated via 15 years of poor user data entry.  

How will we do this? 

What should you do? 
Login to https://my.scouting.org/ and copy your BSA ID Number then update your profile on Meritbadge.info.  Let others in your unit know they should do the same.  We are giving you 2.5 months advanced notice to make this work.

Description

We will be offering morning and afternoon session of merit badge classes, a couple are full day sessions.  Troops will be asked to check in at Iowa Hall from 7:00 am to 7:45am.  A brief opening ceremony will be held outside at 7:50am and sessions will begin at 8:30 am.  The afternoon sessions will begin at 1pm.  Each session will cost $10.  There are some sessions that will last all day.  These will cost $20.  All merit badges that will have field trips will be on campus for lunch.  There are a few merit badges that have extra material fees.



We have it set up so that you can prepay for your lunch.  The cost will be $8.00.  You will need to sign up on the website for the lunch vouchers.  You will receive the vouchers in your registration packet. We will NOT be selling lunch vouchers on campus, they must be purchased with registration!  So please plan ahead and pre-order lunch!!   To sign up for lunch vouchers, please use the food entry.



This year's menu is Pulled Pork Sandwhiches, Party Potatoes, Spring Salad and Lemonade.  Please do not bring any outside lunches into the cafeteria area.  Vending machines will be available to purchase additional snacks.  No change machines will be available.
Counselor Information

We ask that you have a contact person that will be attending the work shop.  We will need their phone number for emergencies.  We would also ask that all release forms be turned in to the registration table.



**Some merit badge sessions will be taking field trips.  We will need volunteers to help with transportation of scouts.  If your troop has scouts signed up, please be ready to help with travel.



ONCE YOUR TROOP HAS SIGNED UP, PLEASE SEND A LIST OF ADULT VOLUNTEERS TO PAM.  We are a small troop and need at least one adult in each session.  It is CRITICAL to the success that we have adults that will sit in sessions.



The Scout Oath, the Law, and the Outdoor Code shall be the guiding behavior for our workshop.  A Scout whose conduct is not consistant with the code will be directed to leave the campus immediately. Adequate supervision must be provided by each participating unit.
