Hey Muskrat,

 

I got a response back from one. He's said he that he isn't a Textile counselor currently; however, he's willing to serve as a counselor. If you're interested, he said he would go and get registered this week.

Yes please, that would be great.  I think I have 2 Scouts lined up already.  Thank you!  I will give you our email: muskratranch@gmail.com

Hi, welcome.

 

The counselor must be registered in your Council.

 

If I may ask, why so determined for one elective merit badge?

Two reasons we would like to make this badge available.  Our area produces flax and wool and even some cotton and hemp.  Many of our local Scouts live on farms or ranches (many in 4-H or FFA) and have connections to these textiles.  Also the information in the badge would help the Scouts make more informed decisions about clothing selection for outings, especially in this cold climate.  

We are really stuck finding a merit badge counselor for the Textile badge. We live in one of the most sparsely populated parts of North Dakota, even our neighboring districts don't have counselors for this badge. If anybody anywhere knows of a counselor for this badge that would be willing to Skype or help out long distance please let us know, thanks!
