When:
Saturday, January 12, 2002
Time: 9:30am - 4:50pm

Who:
Boy Scouts in the Cambridge District (and beyond...)

How Much:
Cambridge District: $5, $15 Late (after 12/20)
Out of District: $15, $20 Late (after 12/20)

What does that get you?
3 Merit Badge pamphlets
1 Patch
1 Diploma
Enthusiastic Instructors
A real good time

Format:
Scouts will take three merit badges (allocated on a first-come, first-served basis). Each period will last two hours, with 10 minutes between each period for travel. Lunch will be provided (looks like it will be some sort of cold-cuts, though PB&J will be available for those who want it). There will be an orientation session at 9:30, and the first class begins at 10. The doors open at 9, and we encourage people to show up early for both fellowship and the sanity of the organizers. Blue Cards will be returned by mail (there is a slight possibility that the instructors will have time to complete them the day of; no promises, though).

What to Bring:
Bring enthusiasm, blue cards signed by your scoutmaster, a notebook, and a writing instrument. You will receive the merit badge pamphlets when you arrive on the 12th.
