10.0508 Merit Badge Jumboree – Burien

Merit badge clinics can be a great way to finish up a camp badge, or learn something new. They’re also a way for Scouts from smaller troops to find a counselor for that more elusive merit badge. In addition to the standard merit badge fair fare, this year’s Jumboree is offering Sculpture and Medicine. Sign up soon to assure you have a spot in the classes you want.
