The Old Hickory Council/Camp Raven Knob Historical Association is offering Collections Merit Badge during the 2024 Old Hickory Trade-O-Ree. Open to scouts from all councils. 

Requirement #1 & #2 should be prepared ahead of time & presented at the event. Plan to bring a sample of your collection. (Could be 10 to 12 items or photos of your collection you have started). Please note that stamps & coins are not considered for this merit badge. 

This is an exciting opportunity for scouts to participate in Collections Merit Badge during an actual trading event with many avid collectors. Scouts will be able to hear from long-time, experienced collectors of scouting memorabilia and learn the "tricks of the (patch) trade" during the day! This merit badge will cost a nominal fee of $10. That will include lunch and a patch trader starter kit.
