Behavioral and Dress Expectations Scouts are expected to attend and engage in the merit badge classes for which they have registered. All participants are expected to abide by the Scout Oath and Law during the merit badge college. Any participant whose conduct does not meet this standard may be asked to leave a merit badge class (without receiving credit) and/or the event. Scouts, with the assistance of their leaders or parent(s)/guardian(s), are responsible for arriving at their scheduled classes on time. Scouts should wear the BSA field (“Class A”) uniform at the event. We ask adult leaders and parents to assist us in providing additional coverage for merit badge classes. All of our instructors are volunteering their time to provide a great program for our Scouts, so extra supervision and support are appreciated!

Merit Badge Scheduling, Details, and Required Waivers Merit badges are scheduled for one (morning, 8:30 a.m.-12:00 p.m., or afternoon, 1:00-4:30 p.m.) or both sessions (all day). Merit badge instruction will follow the requirements listed by the Boy Scouts of America for each class. The merit badge matrix in this guide lists any prerequisites or requirements that cannot be completed at the merit badge college. While every effort will be made to help Scouts complete as much of each badge as possible, some requirements simply cannot be completed in a single day. Each Scout will receive a folder that contains merit badge workbooks for the merit badges for which he or she is registered. Several classes will meet off-campus, at various locations around Cleveland, Mississippi. Permission and travel waivers (found on page 6), signed by Scouts’ parent(s)/ guardian(s) are required for Scouts to leave campus and be transported by merit badge college volunteers (registered Scouters). These forms can be returned at check-in or submitted online (visit chickasaw.org/mbc-2022-forms) before the event. Aviation merit badge has an additional required form (page 7), which can be completed online, too. Merit Badge Completion and Progress Reports Merit badge requirement completion information will be entered in Tentaroo, the registration platform, and available for access by leaders or parents within seventy-two hours after the merit badge college concludes. If you need assistance accessing these records, please contact Johnny Tracy, at 901-425-2217 or john.tracy@scouting.org. Unit leaders are responsible for following up with Scouts/families on merit badge completions and award presentations. Getting Around Campus and Cleveland All Scouts and leaders will be presented with a map of Delta State University at check-in at the merit badge college. Additionally, Scouts will receive a schedule with building and room numbers or meeting locations for each of the merit badges for which they are registered. Participation Fees Registration for the merit badge college is $25.00 per Scout for Saturday only; this fee includes lunch, a patch, and any course materials. The adult participation fee is $10.00 per leader or parent, which covers the cost of lunch on Saturday, at Delta State. Youth and adults may camp at Delta State on Friday night, January 7, 2022, for an additional fee of $10.00 per person ($35.00 total for youth; $20.00 total for adults). The additional fee includes dinner on Friday night and a light breakfast on Saturday. Chickasaw Council Merit Badge College at Delta State 2022 2
