Dear everyone

Let's make this as simple as possible. If you are willing to act as a BSA beekeeping mentor, please make a post to this thread to that effect.

Here, I'll go first:

I pledge to BSA that I will act as a mentor to scouts if BSA reinstates the Bekeeping Merit Badge.

Beekeeping deserves to be back on the list. Not just because a couple of thousand beekeepers say so. Beekeeping should be reinstated because it connects and extends knowledge of several other merit badges. The obvious ones being Nature, Animal Science, Plant Study, and Insect Science.
Just because it might be difficult or possibly even less popular with kids these days, doesn't mean it's not deserving. I was a Scout from 1st Grade through highschool and I never heard of anyone getting the Dentistry merit badge, but last I checked, dentistry is pretty important. So is beekeeping.
I pledge to the BSA that I will act as a mentor to scouts if BSA reinstates the Bekeeping Merit Badge.
