Prerequisites/Age Restrictions/Partial Merit Badges
35
* Merit Badge BLUE CARDS will no longer be accepted as we transition to a completely digital platform
36
* It is highly recommended each scout purchase or borrow a copy, read, and learn the Merit Badge Book for each merit badge.
37
* A complete set of Merit Badge Requirements is available at:
38
https://www.scoutbook.com/mobile/references/boy-scouting/merit-badges/
39
* Merit badge worksheets are not required, but are useful to allow a scout to organize his thoughts and serve as an outline when he needs to explain, describe, or otherwise fulfill a prerequisite. Completion is highly recommended to learn all the requirements. Various sources are available on-line- be sure you have the most up to date version with current requirements.
40
*Welding Participants must be 14 years old.
41
* Shotgun Participants should be 13 years old and weigh at least 120 lbs or more.
