Eastern State Penitentiary is offering area scouts an opportunity to earn Architecture Merit Badge virtually!

Here's the detail:

Eastern State Penitentiary is thrilled to invite scouts to participate in specially-curated learning experiences. Led by our expert staff, scouts will enjoy a full day of interactive discussions and activities. Members of our staff are certified to serve as merit badge counselors through the BSA’s Cradle of Liberty Council, so BSA scouts will also have the opportunity to meet merit badge requirements.

In-person gatherings will be allowed in the green phase provided they meet the Devon 50 guidelines. These guidelines are intended to REDUCE the potential BUT CANNOT eliminate exposure to COVID-19.

Good news! There are several ways to earn non-Eagle required merit badges online.
