Be Prepared is the Boy Scout Motto, and Annawon Council is holding an event to see if you are prepared for an Emergency. You have seen stories of Scouts coming to the aid of those in need after tornadoes, hurricanes, fires. This weekend will hone your skills to help those in need. The E-Prep Weekend centered around the (Eagle-required) Emergency Preparedness merit badge, but also includes the opportunity to earn the First Aid merit badge.
The camping event will be held on May 1-3.
The event will feature an emergency disaster drill (Note: nobody but the organizers know the emergency. Be Prepared!), which is supported by the area's real Emergency Management teams. Support equipment will be on-hand. This drill will be realistic, and will surely test your knowledge and preparedness.
Scouts who don't already have the two merit badges can participate in the Emergency Preparedness Merit Badge (including the First Aid Merit Badge, as well). Scouts who have already earned the merit badges may participate as part of the E Prep team.
Per the Annawon website, Scouts taking the Emergency Preparedness Merit Badge should be First Class and above.
More information is available at the Annawon Council website.
A sign-up sheet will be located in the Scout room for those interested.
BTW - did you know that there is a BSA Emergency Preparedness Award? Find out more.
