Merit Badge Information for Troop 842
Troop 842 scouts who complete a merit badge must turn in your signed "blue card" (application for merit badge) to Mrs. Farr in Advancements. She will record the information in the Troopmaster database and retain a hard copy of the blue card in the Advancement file. The scout keeps the center section of the blue card (applicant's record).
If a scout has earned partial requirements toward a merit badge, give this information to Mrs. Farr as well. She will input this data so the troop has an official record of the completed requirements.
For more detailed information on merit badge procedures and requirements, please consult the Troop Handbook.
