Essential Skills Outdoor School is offering a BSA Climbing Merit Badge class on Saturday April 30 at Devil’s Lake State Park near Baraboo, WI. For those of you who have never been to “the lake” before, you will be amazed at the beautiful setting and the fantastic climbing that the park has to offer.

This class will run 10 am-5 pm and we’ll cover the basics of BSA’s Climb On Safely protocols which every scout needs to achieve the Rock Climbing merit badge. Bill Humphrey is the only professional climbing guide in Wisconsin who is certified to teach this Climb On Safely program which is required for the BSA climbing merit badge. The class is open to all scouts, friends and family and it’s very affordable at only $40. per person. Class size is kept small to facilitate a good learning environment for everyone. Contact Bill at Essential Skills Outdoor School (608) 606-9004 for details or to sign up for the class.
