Jimmy:
Let me know if I can help you with any outreach events for the troop.
Mallincam
is so good for outreach because it allows everyone to be looking at the same
view at the same time.
I googled the requirements, and it doesn't sound like the badge requires a
telescope. I did find a good workbook though. Adler Planetarium Astronomy
Merit Badge Workbook.

Subject: [AZ-Observing] Boy Scout Merit Badge Project
To All,
I was recently ask to assist a Boy Scout troop in acquiring their Astronomy
merit badge. Has anyone in this group worked with the requirements? If so
please contact me offline as I would like to go over some of the finer
points to make sure I'm doing this correctly.
I have downloaded, printed and distributed the work book to the Troop and
worked through the first couple of requirements (there are 10 requirements
altogether and none are "Gimmies"). The whole thing appears to take about a
year to complete. Should be fun but any previous experience, pointers, etc.
would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you,
Jimmy Ray
