Merit Badge Counselors
A list has been compiled of adults who have expertise that can guide Boy Scouts - as a group or individually (with a chaperone) - through requirements to earn MBs. Before contacting a MB Counselor, a Scout should get permission from a Troop Adult Leader.
If an adult has a special talent and would like to become a MB counselor, please download an explanation then complete a form to return to a Troop Leader. An Adult Volunteer registration form will be provided. Also, please complete the Youth Protection course online.
Troop Uniform Explanations
Class-A shirts(without the neckerchief and slide) can be worn with jeans or shorts at informal occasions such as
- Regular troop meetings
- Camps (Klondike Derby, summer camp, any troop campout, etc.)
- District/council activities (like the upcoming VT MB College or ITT)
When the Troop asks for the FULL Class-A uniform, it means definitely wear the neckerchief and slide with the Class-A shirt. The merit badge sash is optional but a good habit to wear with neckerchief and slide. it is recommended that clean/nice jeans or brown/khaki/greenish pants should be worn for these occasions:
- Court of Honors
- Board of Reviews
- Flag Ceremonies or anything to do with flags or Veterans (VFW dinner, Memorial Day, etc.)
- Official District/Council ceremonies (camp closing ceremony, banquet, etc.)
- Church services (Scout Sunday or camp service)
Class-B refers to the Troop t-shirt.
