Advance Camp is a one day activity focused on Merit Badges. Scouts will have a full day of fun and learning. There are over 50 Merit Badges to select from. Each scout can select TWO Merit Badges to work on. In addition, if scouts have partials (these are Merit Badges that were started but not completed) they can bring them to Advance Camp and work on them.
