Merit Badge Library

Welcome to the Troop 284 Merit Badge Library!

There are over 135 merit badges covering a very broad range of topics. Each merit badge has a list of Requirements which the scout must complete. An optional workbook for each badge can help the scout record what they are learning, and organize their notes. Additionally BSA publishes a pamphlet for each badge containing much detailed information on the topic. Use of the workbook and pamphlets are not required but can be very helpful.

The list of badges below includes links to the Requirements (Reqs), the Workbook, and (in most cases) the Pamphlet. Pamphlets we do not yet have can be purchased, please contact the Troop Librarian if this is the case.

If you are interested in the badges required to achieve Eagle Rank, please see our Eagle Required merit badge page which explains the requirements.

To get started with a merit badge, please contact one of the adult leaders to request that you be assigned a Merit Badge Counsellor.
