Merit Badge UniversityThe Merit Badge Fair is an opportunity for Scouts in troops to work towards one or two merit badges. These are not give-away merit badges, and this is not a merit badge factory. Scouts are expected to fulfill all the requirements by reading the merit badge book ahead of time, attending classes and doing prerequisites. Scouts are expected to participate fully during the class in order to receive full credit for the requirements completed onsite.  

Merit badge counselors are needed to help run a successful event. Classes offered are based on merit badge counselor availability.
