Blackburn Merit Badge Weekend -- December 6-8

Troop 149 will have its Merit Badge and Advancement weekend on December 6-8. We will once again be staying at the Blackburn Trail Center cabin located on the Appalachian Trail just outside of Round Hill, VA.  Located on a 150 acre wooded tract, the commercial style kitchen provides two propane gas stoves, refrigerator and freezer, double sinks and two dishwashers. The kitchen is also well stocked with pots, pans and dishes, etc. It has electricity, hot and cold water, and wood burning stoves.

(Note that staying in the Trail Center does NOT count as "camping nights." If you need camping nights for advancement or merit badges, you will have to camp in a tent outside like us hard-core campers)

The weekend is designed to be a merit badge and advancement weekend:

• Emergency Preparation (Eagle required) (Mr Gerard will offer this in February)
• Cooking (Eagle required)
• Law (a new merit badge to Troop 149!)
• Digital Technology 
• Scout, Tenderfoot, Second Class and First Class requirements for those who are not yet First Class or higher. If you are NOT yet First Class or higher
• Helping with advancement for above (should be Star, Life, or Eagle scouts who don't need any of the above)

We reserve the right to close registration or cancel merit badges if registrations are too many or too few.

Cost is $39.50 / attendee for the cabin rental. Please pay for the cabin using the PayPal link below.

As always, pay your grubmaster $20 in cash on the Friday we depart. Adults pay their grubmaster $25 cash.

You must also have your signed permission slip (signed by you AND your parent) submitted before departure. Bring to Troop meeting or send to Mr. Vargas

Thanks and sign up today!
