 Black Creek
Merit Badge Fair
at Camp Echockotee.
March 12-13-14, 2010
THANK YOU
everyone that participated in this weekend's event. Over 6,500 instruction
hours where received by our boys thanks to all of YOU.
The MBF committee wants to extend a special thank you leaders
- all of you where so easy to work with, even if we sometimes did not have
the best class locations and the campsites where crowed.
If you had a boy in the new scout Baden Powel
program: Every boy got a paper with
what he worked on this weekend. Nothing was signed in their books. It is up
to you as troop leaders to check their new skills and sign off the books.
Everyone in the BP program also got to participate in one Merit Badge
(Disability Awareness). They all have the Blue Card for this, signed by the
DA counselor. The boy's Scout Master just needs to sign the card and it's
good.
Not completed classes:
In many classes it's impossible to sign off all requirements
for a badge. The boy has the contact info to their MBF instructor on the
blue card - but also on the website under MB Class 2010. That counselor OR
another, for that badge registered, counselor can sign off the remaining
requirements when they are completed.
Cost Reimbursement:
Councilors - if you still have receipts for cost of class
material, please scan and email to Robert Midgett today or tomorrow!
(Or call him to get a fax number or address).
