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.

Sponsor Information

River Bend Gun Club is a Members Only facility near Dawsonville, Georgia. This event is staffed by NRA certified Range Officers and Shotgun Instructors.


Description

This is a Shotgun Shooting Merit Badge Class.  The class will be conducted at River Bend Gun Club by NRA Certified Range Safety Officers and NRA Certified Shotgun Instructors. The curriculum for this class is designed to satisfy the B.S.A. Shotgun Merit Badge Requirements and is not an approved NRA Course. THIS SESSION IS LIMITED TO 5 SHOOTERS. FIRST 5 REGISTERED WILL BE ACCEPTED. Prerequisite is to read the Shotgun Shooting Merit Badge Pamphlet and complete the Shotgun Shooting Merit Badge Worksheet prior to arrival at the range.  If you arrive without the worksheet you will only receive a partial for the shooting portion of the requirements.



Bring a folding chair - NO PLACE TO SIT, signed range release, $50 cash ($35 initial registration and $15 if needed to buy an additional 25 rounds of ammunition and 25 additional clay targets if needed to qualify), completed shotgun shooting worksheet, water and snacks/lunch, sunscreen and a cap.



The session will open with registration at 12:00 pm and registration will close at 12:15 am.  The safety briefing will begin and no late arrivals will be accepted into the class once the safety briefing starts as the instructors will not start over or repeat the information.  Be there early to be on-time! Be prepared to remain until 5 pm



Shooters for this event must be 13 years of age to register.  Do not ask for exceptions.  Qualification for this badge takes time, physical strength and endurance.  Everyone may not qualify during this single event and may have to arrange with the counselor an appointment to complete the shooting qualification at additional expense for the targets and ammunition.



Participants will be provided with shotguns, ammo, targets, and eye and ear protection!
