3. SCOUT MERIT BADGE WORKSHOP - March 18, 2023
The SCG Fishing Club (along with Trout Unlimited) hosted Scouts from across Arizona to earn their Fly-Fishing and Fishing Merit Badges. The event was held at the Lakeside Pavilion and Lake Nine. Seven Scouts along with parents attended the event and learned about safety, fish anatomy, fly tying, knot tying, casting and handling equipment. By late afternoon the Scouts had completed the requirements, including catching and identifying at least one fish to complete the Merit Badge requirements. A dozen club volunteers acted as coaches and trainers to assist with the requirements. They shared knowledge, skills and techniques with the group of prospective Eagle Scouts.
