Merit Badge List and Times

For any new scouts, I would suggest signing up for 3 to 4 badges.  You don't need to sign up for something every hour.  That's too much for most youth.

* Eagle Quest is for those scouts that are of the rank Scout, Tenderfoot, or 2nd Class.  Those rankings will automatically be enrolled in one of the two Eagle Quest classes.
** Eagle Required merit badges
