Re: Girl Scout/Boy Scout Badge



Yes, the Atomic energy badge is very popular yet, BSA had it first then girl 

scouts came on board i think. VA Power near Fredricksburg has one of the best 

programs in the country to earn the badge, they make an all day program out of 

it and allow the scouts to camp just outside protected area, hard to sleep 

with the turbin noise. 



Remarkably, a geeky kid in Michigan years ago was working on this badge and 

went crazy with passion for it, he worked two years to create a chain reaction 

in his back yard tool shed and irradiated a whole city block. Needless to say 

he did not make eagle scout but finally got the authorities off his back by 

going in the Navy. I hope it wasnt the nuclear navy.



Scouting forever....
