Mentors wanted - boy scouts
Posted: Tue Jul 26, 2011 4:51 pm
My son has just moved up to Boy Scouts and I have joined the move to get the Beekeepers Merit badge reinstated.
To have a succesful local Greensboro program , we will need mentors to help. At this stage i have no idea how many interested scouts we might attract, but would rather be prepared in advance. If our troop is willing ,next spring i will get a hive started at the church too. It is only 3 miles from my home so easy enough to manage. Brushy have donated to this cause in other NC Areas this year, so will approach them for help once i kow where we are.
So if you are willing to help , please let me know.
I have also discovered that a discontinued merit can still be earned, so my son under my guidance will do the full program and still claim the merit badge irrespective of the status at BSA hq
