Climbing Merit Badge

  In December, Troops 64/4064 offered the climbing merit badge to interested Scouts over the age of 13. We started off with a belay class at Planet Granite to learn the knots, safety and techniques for climbing indoors. Then we did an afternoon of outdoor climbing at Castle Rock State Park off South Skyline Boulevard.

Climbing Merit Badge For Scouts Ages 13+

Max Moore (MBC) and Scoutmaster Ellis are joining together to offer the Climbing merit badge to all Scouts of age 13 and older who are interested. This badge will require a belay training class at Planet Granite, preferably a second day there to solidify your skills and pass the test to get a belay card, then a half-day of outdoor climbing on real rock faces in Castle Rock State Park with a certified climbing guide/instructor.

Dates/times are still TBD, and all scheduling will take place by Doodle poll. If you can’t make a specific day/time chosen, you can

 

schedule training or days at Planet Granite on your own.

This is a super fun badge that will enable you to climb indoors and outdoors, a skill that will be super fun to have throughout your life.

Interested? Shoot an email to Scoutmaster Ellis.

Cycling Merit Badge, March – April, 2021

Over the next few months, we will be going mountain biking for the cycling merit badge!

The badge requires 9 different rides, all of which will be completed at Baylands Park.

This is a great opportunity for scouts of any biking ability to have fun and earn an Eagle required badge!

Each ride will be put on multiple times, so you can still do the badge even if you can’t make every ride.

For more information, go to the Calendar page
