HANDICRAFT |
 |
|

|
Carve it, weave
it, thread it, paint it, pound it, imprint it. Handicraft offers
all this to unleash a Scout’s creativity. This year, the
schedule and program has been revised to ensure the Scouts
receive the highest standard of instruction and so they can
retain their knowledge. Please read the special notes below for
more details.

Special Notes: |
- Basketry and Fingerprinting are 2-3 day merit badges
offered Monday & Tuesday and again on Thursday & Friday.
Scouts who need extra time to finish their project or who
would like to start early, can use the open time on
Wednesday. Scouts need to start the merit badge on Monday
or Thursday in order to insure completion.
- Woodcarving, Leatherwork, and Art take a full week to
complete. Scouts should sign-up for the time they would
like to work on a badge and expect to be busy the full
week.
- Handicraft offers fingerprinting from 3:30-4:30
Monday & Tuesday and Basketry from 3:30-4:30 on Thursday &
Friday. Scouts need to show up on both days to insure
completion.
- Scouts can work on their project for any merit badge
during free time (3:30-5:30) but should not expect to
complete any badge during this time unless otherwise noted
because they are encouraged to take part in afternoon
activities throughout camp.
- No merit badge can be started on Friday since
requirements require a day of instruction and another day
for evaluation.

Merit Badge Fees: |

Photography each have a $5 fee to help cover merit badge
materials. Fees will be automatically added to your unit
bill when a Scout signs up for the merit badge. |
