Welcome to Mizzou Merit Badge Day 2018!!
We are looking forward to you and your Troop joining us and over 1000 other Scouts and Scouters from across the region on Saturday September 29th, 2018.
We are excited to have once again partnered with the College of Engineering to bring you a day full of great merit badge classes taught by the best counselors, and have added several new badges for 2018!
We will be posting ongoing updates, including videos, schedules, and special announcements about the event on this page, so please check back often.
