We are registered Merit Badge Counselors who are also Park Naturalists by profession which teach a variety of Boy Scout and Girl Scout badges.
We teach the following Boy Scout Badges as a intensive one day course: Bird Study, Environmental Science, Fish and Wildlife Management, Forestry, Geology, Indian Lore, Mammal Study, Nature, Soil and Water Conservation, and Weather.
The scouts are not guaranteed to earn the badge if they take the course, but only if they successfully complete the requirements.
These merit badge courses are taught off-site, either on scout trips, scout meetings, or at the local parks. The counselor, Brian Kristal, is an Eagle Scout with a Gold Palm and has been teaching merit badges since 1994
We also conduct Webelos courses for the Cub Scouts.
In addition we teach an array of nature related Girl Scout Badges from all ranks, Brownie, Junior, Cadet, and Senior.
Our goal is to help your scout progress to the rank of Eagle Scout or Gold Award Scout.
