Unfortunately the second session of the Carlisle Merit Badge College, tentatively rescheduled to be held at St. Patrick’s School on May 2, is cancelled. No further back up date will be scheduled. Thank you to the scouts from 80 different troop from 14 different councils where some of you took the time and made the effort to travel from hundreds of miles away to join us. We hope you will return in the future. We do this event for the scouts as we have for 17 years.
Scouts are encouraged to continue to work on any requirements assigned by their counselors. If Scouts have specific questions or concerns about the completion of their badge, please reach out to your merit badge counselor directly. Unfortunately the best we may be able to do is fill out your blue card as a partial. Contact information for all of the counselors can be found at: https://www.bsatroop168.com/2020-mbc.
For more updates, please check back to the website above or watch the New Birth of Freedom Council website at www.newbirthoffreedom.org or follow us on any of our social media platforms.
If you have further questions about the college that are not specific to a merit badge class or any feedback on the event or which badges you might like to see in the future, please send those questions to carlislembc@comcast.net.
The 2021 Event is scheduled for March 6 and April 10.
