Current Troop 5 Merit Badge Counselors

The following are Troop 5 leaders who are also merit badge counselors for the listed merit badges. The council also has a long list of counselors available throughout the region to support these badges and more. Any scout wishing to work on a merit badge should speak to the scoutmaster or an assistant scoutmaster who can help get them connected to a merit badge counselor and signed off to start working on the badge. Please send questions anytime, especially for those who may be new to this process.
