Faculty/ Staff

The Culver Academies Boy Scout troop needs faculty and staff help. Scouts advance in the Boy Scouts by earning rank and completing merit badges. The adult leadership and scouts are able to cover all the requirements for earning rank. However, we cannot meet the needs of the scouts when it comes to merit badges. This is where we need faculty and staff members to become involved and be merit badge counselors. Review the following website, and if you have a particular interest in one of the merit badges and are willing to spend some time helping scouts achieve advancement, please contact Dale Spenner, our committee chair, and he will assist in getting you signed up. To learn more about Troop 209, please visit the two following links located here and here. Thank you. – Mr. Larry Emmons, Scoutmaster, Troop 209, Culver Academies
