Cabela’s To Offer Merit Badge Classes

BSA and Cabela’s team up to offer merit badge classes.

Merit Badges give Scouts the chance to explore new horizons that in the future may help them take up a hobby or better yet, find a passion that might turn into a career for them.

During September, Scout month, Boys Scouts of America and Cabela’s have teamed up to offer three different merit badges.  These classes will give Scouts a start on their choice of Fishing, Rifle Shooting or Fish & Wildlife.

All classes are free of charge but you must register.  Class sizes are limited to ten Scouts per class.  To register please contact Amber  (507) 446-5814. 

Merit Badge Classes

The Fishing, Rifle Shooting, and Fish & Wildlife Management merit badge classes will be Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Thursdays at 6pm during September.  Classes are held at the Cabela’s store in Owatonna, MN. from 6 – 9p.m. 

Be advised youth will be working towards earning their merit badges by attending these classes.  These classes will complete the bookwork side of requirements.  Scouts must complete the merit badge ‘hands-on” requirements on their own. 

One session of classroom time will complete the bookwork requirements, you do not need to attend all dates to complete bookwork requirements.

Class Schedule – all classes begin at 6 p.m.
