If you don't earn it now, you probably will not get another chance. You can use the link below to check out the requirements and get a head start on earning this historic merit badge.


Here are some pictures of the Troop building picnic tables as part of the requirments for the Carpentry Merit Badge. They did an amazing job, displaying enthusiasm and maturity. They followed all instruction very well and kept safety in mind as they worked.

Camping at Harmon Den & Hiking at Max Patch


SNOW!!! Yes, we woke up with snow on the ground. Thank God for winter camping! We had a good campsite in Harmon Den right next to a river. (Which no body fell into. Good job guys.) Everybody stayed warm and survived. On Saturday we met up with a couple of Cub Scouts from Pack 326 and then proceded on our winter driving adventure up to Max Patch! (Thanks to Rob and his snow chains!) At the top we had a short hike in the snow. It felt like we were on some kind of Arctic Expedition. What an exciting campout and hike! Thanks to all who came out. We're proud of you. Way to go Coyote Patrol with flying your patrol flag.
