NE-IV-88-Beaver Posted March 18, 2010 Share Posted March 18, 2010 They were published on Scouting magazines blog on January 12, 2010. http://blog.scoutingmagazine.org/2010/01/page/2/ One would assume that they have a connection to BSA..........

John-in-KC Posted March 18, 2010 Author Share Posted March 18, 2010 Read that page as currently structured. It no longer lists requirements. There is nothing in writing from the National Council which gives a Scout/unit serving Scouter/Merit Badge Counselor a place to hang his hat! I was part of the lengthy discussion at both the Scouting and Scouting magazine theads on facebook yesterday about this. I really hope Bill Evans understands his volunteers in the field are not happy about how this has been so superbly rolled out ... NOT. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RememberSchiff Posted March 18, 2010 Share Posted March 18, 2010 The original ("historic") merit badge requirements are in the 1911 Scout Handbook which has been freely available online for some time at gutenberg.org http://www.gutenberg.org/etext/29558 HTML http://www.gutenberg.org/files/29558/29558-h/29558-h.htm Now if those 1911 requirements are changed, then they lose their historic nature. So one would think the requirements would remain the same. Old scouters don't need scanned images to teach old carpentry, pathfinding, morse code, or tracking.
