- **Event Start and End Date**: Sat, 21 Mar, 2026 at 09:00 am – Sat, 21 Mar, 2026 at 04:15 pm
- **Event Description**: Please join The College of Arts and Sciences at Eastern Michigan University on March 21 where scouts will meet with industry experts, EMU college professors and merit badge counselors who facilitate an exceptional merit badge day program. Once registered, scouts may earn up to two merit badges, provided they have completed assigned pre-work and discuss, explain and demonstrate during the workshop time!


DETAILS:

- In order to ensure that units can gain access to advancement/blue cards, we continue to encourage units to sign up AS A SINGLE UNIT instead of as individual scouts. Please have your unit advancement person register all interested scouts.
- SGY guidelines specify the need to have (2) registered leaders for programs with scouts to ensure safety for our youth. We appreciate your assistance with this. For any registered adults planning to attending, your assistance would be greatly appreciated in monitoring rooms.
- We ask that ALL adults that are planning to be on site "register" for free, if they are planning to sit somewhere quietly during the day. We would like to capture names in the event of an emergency.
- Those "staff" members registered will need a password to register as "Staff". Staff members will be gifted a patch as a thank you for their time.


NEW THIS YEAR:

We are offering several courses for adults who would like options during the day. All adult programming registration will have a $10 for materials and a patch. For adults wishing to take the Youth Mental Health First Aid Training, there will be an additional $30 fee to cover the cost of materials and the outside course facilitator. Courses being offered for adults this year include:

Merit Badge Counselor Training
What Is A Unit Commissioner and Why Are They Important!
Committee/Committee Chair Training
Eagle Coach Training
Youth Mental Health First Aid Training

Adults can read about the course offerings on the attached documents. Adults may register for an AM session, a PM session or one of each. Youth Mental Health First Aid is an all day workshop with a separate required on-line component.
