Troop-Specific General Guidance
Here are some specific Troop 1028 guidelines including the process for earning Merit Badges, our latest Merit Badge Counselor (MBC) list, instructions for how to fill out those annoying blue cards, and some example Merit Badges we have done in the past.
Note that the Troop MBC extract is the list of Council approved MBCs in our Troops as of November 2019, as of March we are waiting for the updated official list from Council. The file also defines the set of MBs which are acceptable for working on at home during our COVID-19 break, you must work with one of the MBCs from the list, and have permission from your Scoutmaster before starting a MB.
