We are attending Week 4 (July 1-7). Pages 24-26 cover the Merit Badge (MB) Offerings.
Camp Comer MB Class registration does not start until mid-March, but we need to get started with putting together a summary of the MB choices for each scout as soon as possible because the class size is limited in some classes and they are filled on a first come, first served basis.Note: The first payment of $75 must be paid in order to proceed with MB sign-up and registration.
Please review the MB choices on pages 24-26 and provide the campmasters with a written list (email preferred) of top seven MB choices in order by priority for Sessions 1-5. 6th and 7th MB choices are only needed in the event that one or two of the first 5 MB choices are not available. We will make an announcement when registration opens and MB class selections have been entered and confirmed.
Take into consideration the following summer camp program activities, session times and age requirements listed below when making MB selections.

We are initiating a T-shirt Design contest for new T-shirts this year. Any Scout who wants to participate can submit a design. You do not have to be an artist and your design does not have to be perfect to be submitted. The T-shirt shop has artist on hand who can professionalize your design if needed so don’t let that hold you back. Your design can be hand drawn or computer generated.
Come join Troop 350 on a hiking and backpacking trip to Fall Creek Falls, on 23-25 March.
