"Unicycling Merit Badge" for Scouting

All true, blue uni people:

I’m an EAGLE SCOUT. (1978) As a scout, I often performed for the troop on
one wheel.

Then and until now, I’ve been involved with training children young and old to
ride unicycles.

Therefore,

I’ve often pondered the idea of coming up with a “Unicycling Merit Badge” for
the Scouting Program!

John / others …

Any comments here? How would we go about it?

Both of my sons, Alberto Jr. and Javier, were long boy scout members, from Wolf
(Cubs, there were no Tigers then) to Star or Life. I was never a boy scout, but
was a Webelo leader and an Assistant Scoutmaster.

Javier used his unicycle at some of the events. Unicycling is very consistent
with scouting. We should develop your idea further.
