BSA Railroading
Saturday, May 2nd
9:00 AM - 12:00 PM
Cost: $25 per scout, $15 per chaperone
This merit badge workshop is open to any youth in grades 6th – 12th grade and is designed to help BSA scouts meet requirements for the Railroading merit badge. We will be covering ALL requirements for this merit badge! While there are no pre-requisites, we strongly encourage participating Scouts to review the Railroading Merit Badge Requirements and workbook prior to the workshop. Requirements 8b parts 1 and 2 will be fulfilled by visiting the Pennsylvania Trolley Museum. Scouts should bring a phone or camera, or can use drawing materials provided by the museum.
All merit badge workshops are $25 per scout and $15 per chaperone unless otherwise noted. Merit badge workshops include general admission to the museum. Please note that no physical merit badges or patches will be handed out. While we encourage Scout Leaders to attend along with multiple Scouts from the same troop or pack, adult chaperones are not required to attend these workshops.
As a reminder, curriculum follows the Scouting America (formerly Boy Scouts of America) badge requirements, but all youth of the appropriate age are welcome to attend.
