Citizenship in Nation - Kickoff Thursday 6/8 7pm

[Jeremy Disch]

Here is the people I have signed up for up Citizenship in the nation:

Sophia, Magie, Millie, Cameron, Duncan, Will, Colin

I would like to kick off the merit badge on Thursday June 8th at 7 pm virtually to go over the requirements. Please join me virtually at https://meet.google.com/rcg-vrzj-ttz. It should only take about 30-40 minutes for this kickoff. Let me know if you have a conflict.

I am aware that several scouts are currently on their DC trip, and therefore may not be available to participate in the virtual kickoff. I would encourage them to look at requirement #2 posted below as they will have the opportunity to meet this requirement.

Requirement #2: Do TWO of the following:
a. Visit a place that is listed as a National Historic Landmark or that is on the National Register of Historic Places. Tell your counselor what you learned about the landmark or site and what you found interesting about it.
b. Tour your state capitol building or the U.S. Capitol. Tell your counselor what you learned about the capitol, its function, and its history.
c. Tour a federal facility. Explain to your counselor what you saw there and what you learned about its function in the local community and how it serves this nation.
d. Choose a national monument that interests you. Using books, brochures, the Internet (with your parent’s permission), and other resources, find out more about the monument. Tell your counselor what you learned, and explain why the monument is important to this country’s citizens.

Best Regards,
