Outpost

Postby Paintball4Life » Fri Jul 15, 2005 3:58 pm

Hey I'm just wondering does Enviromental Science, Fish and Wildlfe Management and Fishing have outposts at summer camp? Oh and if one camp has an outpost for one merit badge does that mean the other summer camps do to?

My impression is that there is a bit of variability between different Scout Summer Camps in merit badge offerings.

Environmental science should be found at just about all of them. I don't know about the others. At the camp our troop goes to, fishing is offered for two afternoons to go over the basics and then the boys are on their own to catch the fish and finish things up.

Wilderness Survival is the only MB at our camp with an overnight outpost.

What I meant was does Enviromental science have an outpost and if one merit badge at one camp has an outpost does that mean the other camps that offer that merit badge will have an outpost?

Each camp is different. The LOutpost is not part of the requirements except in WS so an outpost in ES would be a nice addition
