Merit Badge Pamphlets Merit Badge Suggestions NESA Troop 304, Cub Scouts of America The Lovett School Kevin Link - Scoutmaster www.lovett304.com The Troop Scribe has many merit badges pamphlets available for check-out. See the Troop Scribe at any meeting for a list of available pamphlets. These pamphlets are available for 3 months and may be renewed. The Troop also welcomes any pamphlets that you have purchased and no longer need. The following is a list of recommended merit badges that each new Scout should consider when attending Scout Camp for the first time: Tenderfoot • First Aid • Swimming Second Class • Emergency Preparedness • Citizenship in the Community NESA is a merit badge program that is sponsored by the National Eagle Scout Association. This program offers all Atlanta Area Scouts to participate in a one day event to earn various merit badges. The program offers all eagle required merit badges, many of which can be earned in one day. (See the Eagle Required merit badges in this guide.) The Troop will announce the dates and location of these events prior to their occurrence. (See Calendar) To participate, the following is required: Completion of a registration form at least one week in advance of the event. All completed forms must be submitted to the NESA coordinator. Secure the necessary merit badge pamphlets and complete all advance requirements. Complete and take a blue merit badge card. The Troop will provide all necessary payments for applicable NESA fees. On the day of the event, Scouts should assemble at the Lovett Parking Deck for the scheduled departure time in full uniform and a bag lunch and drink. Final details, times, and requirements will be posted on the website. For this event, the Troop will need several drivers to transport the Troop. Please contact the NESA coordinator if you can help. (See the section on Volunteers located in the guide.) This is a fantastic opportunity to get those tough Eagle badges – in one day! Plan on this in advance, it is worth skipping the big game over.

Outing Departures and Arrivals Troop 304, Cub Scouts of America The Lovett School Kevin Link - Scoutmaster www.lovett304.com All Lovett event departures and arrivals will occur at the Lovett Parking Deck. Parent’s Role Scouting offers a great opportunity for parents to participate along with their Scout in the many educational and outdoor activities planned. Although, not required, parents are welcome to almost all events. Parental participation is critical to the success of the program but also does come with some overall guidelines: All adult leaders must be registered with the Boy Scouts of America All adult leaders must complete a youth protection program offered once a year by the Troop Parents are not allowed to serve as merit badge counselors for their child unless asked by a member of the Troop Committee. Counselors must offer instruction to the entire Troop Parent’s should encourage Scouts to coordinate all communications and planning activities with the Troop and its leaders and are strongly discouraged from contacting the leaders directly. The Scouts must take ownership of their involvement in the Troop. Parents should encourage the Scouts to find answers to their questions using this Guide, the website, and their Patrol leaders. Please check the website for all available updates prior to contacting leaders. Please do not ask Troop Leaders to offer make-up events if your son was unable to attend. The size of our Troop prohibits make-up sessions. Popcorn Sales Our Troop participates in the annual Popcorn sales as organized by the BSA. As part of this program, each Scout may participate individually and at planned group “show-n-sell” events. This fundraiser contributes a significant amount of money to Troop operations and we also make a nice contribution to a local charity. Please review the key Popcorn dates in August – November of each year. The Troop profits will be divided 40% to the Scout for activities, 40% to the Troop, and 20% to a local charity.
