Music Merit Badge

              Hi this is Marcus, I have earned the Music Merit Badge, for this merit badge I learned to play the cello and learned how to use the instrument at school for 6 months. I love to play the cello, for the badge I sang the first verse of a song given to me by my counselor and I taught my family three scout songs: Bazooka bubblegum, The shark song, and Alfie the family pet.  These are three songs I learned at Scout camp.

Notes from the mom:
Both boys have finished this merit badge.  Because they were already taking music lessons this merit badge was a no-brainer.  When earning merit badges you can definitely play to the boys' strengths.  Because we already had instruments and classes at school this one was low cost, but did take 6 months to complete.
