Merit Badge Madness At The 2013 Jamboree

Many of you have asked about the status of the Merit Badge Midway for the 2013 National Scout Jamboree.

Get ready because we have some answers.

Two things:

  1. It’s no longer called the Merit Badge Midway. Rather than a specific area, merit badge booths will be located throughout the Summit Center area of the jamboree.
  2. It’s still going to be a great way to get up to snuff on a ton of merit badges.

You don’t need to sign up ahead of time; just show up and be prepared to learn and enjoy yourself in the process.

This is not necessarily the final list so you’ll want to check in here at the Summit Blog for periodic updates.
