dg98adams 18 Posted September 16, 2009 Share Posted September 16, 2009 Anyone know the new (if any) merit badges for 2010....I know about Scuba, as a local Scuba instructor (who was a TG on WB staff with me) helped develop it. Is there 3 more? Someone mentioned "Scout Heritage or "Scout History"? I have not found anything online yet. Thanks DG Link to post Share on other sites
emb021 16 Posted September 16, 2009 Share Posted September 16, 2009 No formal announcements have been made. There is a list floating around of supposedly new ones, such as SCUBA, GPS/GIS, Scouting Heritage, and I think another. Typically, such things are rolled out with the National Meeting in May or the Top Hands meeting in August. It may be we will get an announcement in 2010, prehaps around the National Meeting, with the new merit badges being rolled out at Jamboree (like they did with composite materials).

Oak Tree 15 Posted September 16, 2009 Share Posted September 16, 2009 I thought that the official site twittered about this, but I can't find it now. I did find this on a council site: MERIT BADGE UPDATE: These merit badges have been approved and are in development with the following tentative launch dates. Scuba: Q4 2009 Scouting Heritage: Q4 2009 GPS/GIS: Q1 2010 Robotics: Q2 2010 Per http://www.narragansettbsa.org/volunteers/districts/cachalot/index.htm So I don't know how official it is, but it's pretty consistent.
