Merit Badge Workshop

Embark on an unforgettable journey of skill and discovery at the Merit Badge Workshops hosted at Battleship Cove. This is a unique opportunity for Scouts to advance on their path in a setting steeped in American history. Guided by our dedicated Merit Badge Counselors, you will engage in hands-on activities and immersive discussions designed to help you master new abilities and complete all requirements. Each workshop is more than just a class; it is an adventure aboard a historic naval landmark, where the lessons of the past inspire the achievements of the future. Explore a wide range of subjects that build character and knowledge. Delve into our nation's heritage by examining pivotal moments and documents, or uncover the rich tapestry of American cultures. Develop vital skills in communication and citizenship, learning how our government functions and practicing the art of effective speaking. You can also master essential safety protocols for emergency situations or dive into the world of nonverbal communication. Imagine sending messages with semaphore flags and exploring the authentic radio room aboard the legendary Big Mamie, connecting directly with history. These workshops offer a chance to connect with the core principles of Scouting, from its foundational history to its modern-day impact. You will leave not only with a new merit badge but with a deeper understanding of the world and your place in it. Join us at Battleship Cove for an educational experience where you can build confidence, forge new friendships, and create lasting memories while working towards your Scouting goals.
