=== '''Boy Scouts of America Genealogy Merit Badge''' ===
__NOINDEX__
Boy Scouts  may wish to earn The ''Boy Scouts of America'' Genealogy Merit Badge by enrolling in a class workshop held  on the 2nd Saturday of each month, from 10:00 a.m. to 11:30 a.m. Certified merit badge counselors and genealogy specialists help to teach Boy Scouts the steps necessary for acquiring the merit badge as well as basic genealogy research techniques. Scout leaders or parents who accompany the Scouts to the class workshop are invited and encouraged to assist them during the workshop to successfully complete the activities.
