The sessions of 20-In-20 will begin on July 13 and run Monday through Friday un- til August 7th. Class will begin at 5:30 pm and can run up to 3 hours long. How does the Virtual class work?
The live stream will include a safety moment , and a check to make sure each scout has a cyber chip. The merit badges will be completed online via GOTO Webinar. Are there any Class Size Limits?
Each Merit badge will have a limit of 50 participants per class. We are expecting each class to fill up rather quickly. We ask that you register quickly to accommo- date a large schedule.

Where do I register for the 20-In-20
You can sign up on the council website https:// www.leatherstockingcouncil.org/ What does each Scout need in order to register?
Each Scout will need to have an ACTIVE Scoutbook account. Scouts will also need their own individual email.
