Alpine District allows adults and youth to lookup and contact actively registered Alpine Distict Merit Badge Counselors.  You can lookup badges by name, or find all the badges supported by counselors in a specific Troop.  To access the Merit Badge Counselor Search for Alpine District, you must have an account on SeattleBSA.org.  Once a counselor is located, an email can be sent to the counselor requesting a meeting. 

Please remember, youth should never meet with a Merit Badge Counselor alone.  Youth protection rules must be followed.  A Scout must be with a buddy, or parent, when working with a Merit Badge Counselor.
