After a review of some of the age limits at summer camp, it has been determined that Camp Long Lake will no longer have age requirements for Climbing, Waterskiing, or Shotgun merit badges. In the past, we complied with National's requirement for limiting some program opportunities for older Scouts. Standards have changed and many Scouts are already doing these activities with their families, so we are removing these restrictions. As always, the Scoutmaster is encouraged to consult with Scouts before issuing them a blue card to make sure the Scout is prepared for any merit badge.
