Are you ready for a challenge? Think you can complete a merit badge in a 24 hour period? Let’s put it to the test…. Listed as one of the badges for social distancing that could be completed at home, Wilderness Survival Merit Badge will challenge a Scout of any age on survival skills and time management. Join Troop 2000 for a virtual campout in your backyard where you can do any or all of the following (participate in as much or as little as you like): earn Wilderness Survival Merit Badge, work on early rank requirements, work on outdoor cooking for rank requirements or Cooking Merit Badge, and/or Camping Merit Badge requirements. Coordinated Zoom sessions will be planned for early rank requirements (September 18) and Wilderness Survival Merit Badge (September 19 & 20) - those wishing to work on Cooking MB or Camping MB should connect to a MBC on their own. Share pictures of your adventures to the T2K Facebook page!
