      Thanks for the update – I was talking to a parent last fall and it was his perspective that all merit badges were career opportunities because the last requirement for most merit badges is –
      Find out about three career opportunities in _________. Pick one and find out the education, training, and experience required for this profession. Discuss this with your counselor, and explain why this profession might interest you.
