First Aid Merit Badge

Jan 29, 2019 | Advancement Updates

First Aid is a great merit badge for new scouts to start with, and a life skill that will serve scouts well into adulthood. Many local organizations offer First Aid Merit Badge workshops periodically throughout the year including Evanston Recreation, the APO sorority at Northwestern University, Rolling Meadows Park District, and others. Troop 28 also has an in-house Merit Badge Counselor who will work with you to earn your First Aid Merit Badge so you can always “Be Prepared!” when you are needed.
