Back to: Scouts BSAWe know there is a lot of excitement about what’s next for Scouts BSA, and we want to share a quick update on a few projects:
**The Scouts BSA Combined Troop Pilot has recently concluded its final participant survey. The feedback has been reviewed and is being presented to the National Executive Council in October. Once a final decision is made, we’ll share whether this option will become available to troops.
In the meantime, troops that are already in the combined pilot may remain in their current configuration until a final decision is announced. Please note that we are unable to add additional troops to the pilot at this time.
**On another exciting front, we’re putting final touches on two brand-new merit badges: Cybersecurity and Artificial Intelligence (AI). Both badges were previously announced at the National Annual Meeting, and they will be officially rolled out on September 22nd. These new badges will give Scouts the chance to experience cutting-edge topics and explore careers in these dynamic fields.
Thanks for your patience, we’re excited to share more details about these updates soon!
