AdvanceCamp provides scouts with the opportunity to complete advancement begun at another scout event, to start and complete advancement with the completion of all requirements during the camp, or to begin work on and make a contact with a counselor to complete a merit badge at a later time.
- All merit badges will be completed using worksheets available at usscouts.org, so print out the worksheets for each merit badge you plan to work on and bring them along with you to camp.
-
Special Requirements: Many Merit Badges require that the scout have permission slips, special clothes or shoes, extra clothes, etc. Please check the details of every Merit Badge and make sure that your scouts are prepared to work on that badge.
-
Swimming: Scouts going for the Swimming MB, Lifesaving MB or Trailhead Swimming. It is not an instructional class to teach you how to swim, but a verification of your swimming skills and knowledge. Be sure to bring a change of clothes for some of the requirements.
