2019 Merit Badge Workshops
|
The museum offers dozens of Boy Scout merit badge workshops every year. Among those we have offered in the past are Weather, Rifle Shooting, Scouting Heritage, Collections, Photography, Citizenship in the Community, Family Life, Medicine, Scholarship, Citizenship in the Nation, Emergency Preparedness, Law, Public Speaking, First Aid, Citizenship in the World, Electricity, Cycling, and many more. We recruit registered merit badge counselors to lead these workshops. They determine the prerequisites the youth must complete prior to the workshop, and they are the ultimate authority in determining whether or not the youth has met the badge's requirements. Most workshops take place at the North Star Museum's home in North St. Paul. Some have been off site, and a few have had an off-site component. Prerequisites must be completed as instructed. All classes are $12 for members and $15 for non members. |

October 19, 2019 | Signs, Signals and Codes
8:30 A.M. - 3:00 P.M. at the museum. The Signs, Signals, and Codes merit badge covers a lot of interesting material, and we will complete all requirements in one day. You will learn the basics of Morse Code, semaphore, Braille, and American Sign Language. Many other subjects are also covered, including trail signs, silent scout signals (although “silent scout” is an oxymoron), nautical flags, and even emoticons.
Bring a lunch and/or money to buy lunch at Subway across the street from the museum. Workshop includes a hike so come prepared for the weather.
