I am Roger Droz, an Eagle Scout (troop 218, Spokane, WA,
1970). My son is also an Eagle Scout (troop 189, Mukilteo,
WA, 2010). I am a counselor for
several merit badges. You can learn more about me from my LinkedIn profile.
I will be leading two combined sessions of Communications and Public Speaking.
Bring two blues cards and you can get credit for working on two merit badges at once. No double counting of one speech for two requirements, of course. But if you have a partial in Communications from a previous merit badge clinic, this is a good opportunity to finish off one badge and work on another. Public Speaking basically begins where Communications leaves off.
Please look at the requirements and my outlines below. I encourage you to recycle school presentations, or give future school presentations a "dry run" before an audience of your peers at the merit badge clinic. If it fits a requirement of one of the merit badges, share it at the clinic for scout credit.
