Baby Boomer Merit Badges
Taking a page from the Girl Scouts (marking their 100th anniversary this year), I’ve taken it upon myself to create a new association, the Boomer Scouts. This nonprofit organization, founded on the dispiriting reality that the triumphs of middle-aged people often go unrecognized, is herewith announcing its first merit badges. According to a Boomer Scout spokeswoman (me), “These badges aim to affirm and celebrate our everyday wins while we still can.”
