Duct Tape merit badge


Dear Pedro, I noticed on my council Web site that the BSA is considering a Duct Tape merit badge. Being an avid duct tape user myself, I am completely in favor of this. Please enlighten me.

That’s a sticky question, Aidan. According to my inside sources, a committee has agreed to look into it. We’ll let you know if the proposal holds together or comes unglued.

    I believe this is a great chance for young scouts to be as crative as he wants to be, and actually this is something that many scouts, scouters and other people already do, just look at all the thing people do with duct tape, why not let the scouts understand more about it and at the ssame time build something with it, using there own creative minds, and isnt that part of the program as well seeing them all become more creative in there scouting program.
