Alpha Phi Omega is a national

co-ed service fraternity founded in 1925 on the principles of Scouting. Keeping

with our Scouting heritage and spirit of service, the chapter hosts youth

achievement days every year. We hope to

continue these traditions and bring more university resources together. At each

of our workshops, boys will try and complete as many requirements for their

badge of choice as possible during the allotted time, while still giving each

requirement the time it deserves.

 

A brother of Alpha Phi Omega or a community member will be teaching each badge.

APO will also be providing the blue cards for each workshop. Merit Badge University

will be held on Saturday, March 7th.

8:45 AM – 9:15 AM Registration (room TBA)
