A description of the requirements can be found by searching for the specific merit badge requirements on Google, or by going to meritbadge.org, clicking on Merit Badges in the Boy Scouting section, and then clicking on the appropriate merit badge.
Please try to complete these requirements before camp, and bring your work with you, so that you can earn the badge during camp. If you aren’t able to complete some of these requirements before camp (for example, all of the meals that need to be cooked for the Cooking MB), please work on completing those as quickly as possible after you get home. Thanks for your cooperation.
