• Contact a Merit Badge Counselor and express his desire to earn a badge. • Meet the counselor along with a buddy and discuss how to get the most out of the time spent working on the badge. • Give him/her a Scoutmaster or Varsity Scout Coach signed merit badge application; • Learn and do the requirements described in the subject-specific merit badge pamphlet. • When ready, meet with the counselor again to go over the important parts of the subject. A good counselor will also help him see beyond the requirements and discover ways to continue learning about the subject. • When the Scout has satisfactorily completed the requirements, the counselor will sign the merit badge “blue card”. • The Scout will give the signed “blue card” to his Scoutmaster or Varsity Scout Coach. • The badge will be presented to the Scout during a troop ceremony.
