Gamehaven Council provides excellent support to Scouting programs in southeast Minnesota. By providing training and access to facilities and resources, they help (mostly parent) volunteers to help our young men and young women develop physical fitness, citizenship, and character. Just one example is the Merit Badge Fair coming up this month. More than 600 youth from Minnesota, Wisconsin, South Dakota and Michigan will converge on Rochester for one day, earning over a thousand merit badges. Some of the most popular are Citizenship in the Community, Nation, and World, and the topics range from Aviation to Welding.
