This merit badge workshop is open to any youth in grades 6th – 12th grade and is designed to help BSA scouts meet requirements for the Signs, Signals, and Codes merit badge. We will be covering requirements 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 8, 9, and 10. Scouts will investigate signals along the rails, then practice American Sign Language, Braille, semaphore, and decipher secret codes!
Scouts are responsible for the following pre/post-requisites: 7. On a Scout outing, lay out a trail for your patrol or troop to follow. Cover at least one mile in distance and use at least six different trail signs and markers. After the Scouts have completed the trail, follow no-trace principles by replacing or returning trail markers to their original locations. Scouts must make their own trail signs and markers using natural materials. Scouts can write a short report about completing this requirement and should include pictures showing each trail sign and marker used for counselor approval.
