HobbyTown is located at 919 North East Street in Frederick. They are starting with the basics, but will expand as demand dictates.

Remember, All Merit Badge Counselor's must be trained (Course D76) and be YPT (Youth Protection Training) compliant by January 1, 2012 or they will be dropped from the District/Council rolls.

A reminder from council:

YOUTH PROTECTION TRAINING (YPT): As of June 1, 2010, Youth Protection Training (YPT) is required for all new adult volunteers before a registration application will be processed. YPT training is valid for two years. YPT must be up to date/valid for current Scouters. Should a currently registered Scouter go "non-current" in YPT, they are no longer covered by BSA or NCAC liability insurance and are "at risk." They must renew YPT online at www.myscouting.org before they have any contact with Scouts! The requirement is for 100% of all registered Scouters to be Youth Protection Trained 100% of the time. The safety of our Scouts demands it!
