Burpee is offering In-Person and Virtual Merit Badges
In this class, scouts will earn their Indian Lore Merit Badge.
Scouts will earn this Badge by spending time in the Museum’s Native American exhibits and interacting with artifacts from the collection either virtually or in-person. They will learn about Native Americans of our area from a registered Boy Scout Indian Lore Merit Badge Counselor. Spend time in a recreated wigwam, learn how members of tribes historically provided for food, shelter and clothing, and make a leather craft to learn Native American activities and traditions.
Pre-registration & prepayment are required to attend.
