The past few Mondays, scout troop 282 has been learning about the heritage of the Boy Scouting program. We have learned about important people to the program, events, and how time has changed Boy Scouts. The coolest part of it all was learning the history of our own troop through a video.

I know I learned many things that I didn’t know before. It was a fun month getting to learn about the past, and how many things still haven’t changed in scouting. This definitely was an interesting merit badge.

Even getting to see Mr. Dubill’s collection was amazing. He had things from the beginnings, and it was really cool to see how things like patches and uniforms have evolved. I enjoyed this past month, and I know other people did too.
