Scout BSA: Mammal Study & Exploration Merit Badge Camporee
January 31, 2025 @ 7:00 pm - February 2, 2025 @ 3:45 pm
Choose Mammal Study or Exploration or BOTH during a fun-filled weekend. Build on teamwork and scouting ideals while participating in Mammal Study, with an emphasis on bats. They are a key ‘nuts & bolts’ species in ecosystems around the world. Discover their importance, investigate different families and species, then complete a troop bat house to take home and put up in your community. Our newest program Exploration explores the history of speleology, cave exploration, research, and conservation. Scouts plan and carry out their own scientific expedition in the cave, performing experiments and analyzing the data afterwards. The highlight of the visit is an awesome BLACK LIGHT ADVENTURE tour of two beautiful crystal caverns. All workshops taught by registered Merit Badge Counselors and are complete at the end of the event! Primitive camping and lunches included.
