Completing Online MB Submission Forms – May Status Update

Hey guys, Mac Guzman here. I have less than a year left in Scouts! This month I explain how I am progressing in my scouting career while online, and I discuss how the Submission Forms work in Online Merit badges. I talk about my merit badges that I have worked on, and how I am advancing in my scouting career. I attempt to answer the following questions:
🔵 Online Merit Badge Submission Forms
🔵 How to register for online merit badges
🔵 How do I get merit badges online during corona virus?
🔵 How is covid19 affecting scouting?
🔵 How to sign up for CFC live classes
