Merit Badge College gives your scouts an opportunity to earn one of the many badges offered in engineering, science or a non-technical badge. The instructors are Chattanooga State Faculty members who will provide informative and challenging sessions and will introduce them to a college environment, as well as a possible career and higher education opportunities.
Due to the varied subject matter, we are asking Scoutmasters to counsel Scouts on choosing merit badges that are appropriate for the Scout’s age and experience. Scouts should come in complete uniform.
