Suffolk County Council is excited to bring a year long merit badge program to the Boy Scouts.  Through this program we will be partnering with various organizations and companies to offer unique merit badge opportunities.  As information about the district summer merit badge programs become official in the spring we will have that information here as well.  Click the links below for each merit badge to see when and where it will be offered along with the cost to participate.  If you have any questions please contact the person in charge of the merit badge on its individual sign up page.

Hello Troop 349
Our spring plant sale/fundraiser forms will be due at our April 19 meeting. This is a firm date since we need to place our order with our local grower. Next week when you see family & friends for the holidays, be sure to get their plant orders. Remember a portion of your fundraising money goes into your scout account to help pay for the upcoming trips including the white water trip & Yawgoog.
If you haven’t picked up your order forms, they will be available at the meeting this Wednesday.

There are still seats available on the bus for our trip to Boston. Please sign up online or at the next meeting. Payment for this trip is due this Wed April 5.

Thank you
Scoutmaster Andy
