Requirements

If you have the official requirements, please e-mail them to me. Thanks, —RWSmith (Bureaucrat), 13:22, August 11, 2011 (EDT)

We have the requirements, but cannot post them until September 7, 2011, per request from BSA. —RWSmith (Bureaucrat), 12:42, August 24, 2011 (EDT)

Chess release date delayed

Chess was originally to be released earlier this month. However, I learned (click here for details) on August 13th, that, due to a printing error, the entire inventory of Chess merit badge pamphlets had to be scrapped; and, fortunately, this was caught in the final quality control check (just prior to distribution). As quoted on the article page, we received and posted the following (in part) on August 15th:

“ Boy Scouts of America to Introduce New Chess Merit Badge...
  • September 7, 2011, Wednesday – Chess requirements and MB patch posted on Scouting.org
  • September 10, 2011, Saturday – Pamphlets and patch available in Scout Shops and at ScoutStuff.org
”

Worksheet errors

Just noticed at the top of the worksheet, it says "Robotics" instead of "Chess". I don't know who fixes this, but just want to get the info out there.

Syllabus needed for Chess merit badge class (summer camp)

Image:Arr r.png NOTE: This topic has been moved from Tom B ⇒ Talk:Chess. —RWSmith (Bureaucrat), 12:58, March 12, 2012 (EDT)

I have been asked by a council to prepare a syllabus for the Chess merit badge class for summer camp... I am hoping someone has already prepared one and would be willing to share.

It could be beneficial if meritbadge.org had syllabuses for the merit badges like it has worksheets. :) Thanks, —Tom B, March 8, 2012
