Handicraft

The handicraft badges are a good start for many first year Scouts. The pride and satisfaction of making something with your own hands is a good lesson for a young Scout to learn. New Scouts always find success in this area; encourage them to pick at least one activity from this area.

Open Handicraft provides Scouts an opportunity to make their own project or finish up partial merit badges, without taking the entire session over again. Adults are also welcome to participate and assist during Open /Handicraft.

Please note many of the activities in the Handicraft Area require the purchase of materials, be sure that those Scouts signing up for activities in the Handicraft Area bring necessary funds. Check the activity schedule for prices. (Click Here for Activity Schedule)

A Scout is not a sitting-down animal.
