Civics on the Square presents the second annual Merit Badge University. Join us on a journey through Springfield’s past as we explore civics and citizenship through the years and earn badges along the way! Scouts can earn 1 to 3 merit badges. Partnered with the Discovery Center of Springfield, badge options include Eagle Scout required Citizenship in the World, Citizenship in the Community, Citizenship in the Nation, and Environmental Science, as well as 3 other history/science focused merit badges.
