There are a few classes which have a size limit, unless a limit is stated, the class sizes are unlimited.  Some of the merit badges have a requirement for a long term assignment or a visit to a certain type of place.  Those requirements will need to be completed outside of the merit badge day.  A list of completed requirements will be provided to the Scout at the end of the class.  Please have the boys read and bring their merit badge book if possible.  
    You can send questions to me at LoriDenise7 at aol.com or call me at 479-996-5704.  You can mail a list of Scouts to sign up with a check made to "BSA troop 146" to Lori Lensing, 131 Indian Hill Blvd., Greenwood, AR 72936.  You can also sign up by e-mail and pay during the morning registration on the day of the classes.  On classes with a size limit, please include a second choice.  Please give me a way to contact you with confirmation by e-mail or telephone.
     This promises to be a successful and fun merit badge day, I hope to see you there!
