Family Life Merit Badge

Scouts,

I have had two boys express interest in working on the Family Life merit badge.  If you are also interested, please email me.

This is an Eagle required merit badge, one requiring more involvement and maturity to complete than most as there is work at home, completion of a chore chart over a 3-month period, and quite a bit of writing.  It is suggested that you have a rank of First Class or higher before working on this merit badge.

I need to change the schedule for those interested in Family Life merit badge.  We will not be meeting this coming Tuesday, Jan 14 or Jan 28.
We can meet Feb 4 and Feb 18 at 6:00 at the church.  Please let me know if you are available.

If you want to get started before the February meetings, please print out the merit badge workbook from www.meritbadge.org.  You can begin by reading requirements 3 (chore chart), 4 (home project), and 5 (family project) and reading examples that meet the requirement in the merit badge book.  Before you start working on the chores and projects, call me to discuss the ideas you have to make sure you will be meeting the requirements.  The other requirements will be addressed as we meet together.

For those of you who attended the groups in the fall and have unfinished requirements, you can call or email to make arrangements to meet with me as needed.  Several of you are very close to completing the badge (Alec Thomas, Ben Caskey, Hunter Rothwell, Billy Kattner).
