Merit Badges
Merit Badge Resources
Merit badges give scouts the opportunity to investigate over 130 different areas of knowledge and skills. The merit badge program plays a major role in the scouting advancement program and participation can begin as soon as a scout registers with a troop. Each scout can explore topics from American Business to Woodworking as they have interest. The only limitations are their ambition and availability of adult merit badge counselors to offer instruction.
Here are links to all the merit badge work books for merit badges offered by the BSA.
