WaterWorks offers hands-on merit badge classes that connect Scouts with real-world environmental science. Our programs emphasize outdoor learning, inquiry-based activities, and meaningful engagement with water quality, wetlands, and local ecosystems. Scouts don’t just complete requirements, they actively explore, test, observe, and apply what they learn in the field.

All merit badge classes are taught by registered merit badge counselors.

As long as Scouts actively participate in the class, they will complete their merit badge during their session and go home with a completed blue card.

(Please note that the Environmental Science merit badge requires a worksheet to be completed prior to attending.)
