Troop 285 is lucky enough to have a professional jewelry maker who organized
and taught the Metals Merit Badge class this year. Mr. Larry Harbaugh graciously gave his time, his tools, even his workshop in order to introduce
the Scouts of Troop 285 to silverworking and other metals crafts.
Here's some highlights of the multi-week class!
