Death of a Merit Badge: Bugling (1911-2010)



Beginning in 2011, you will not be able to earn the Bugling merit badge any longer.

According to the "Ask the Expert" feature at Scouting magazine's blog:
The revised merit badge pamphlet that merged Bugling into Music was released earlier this year. It won’t be official until the 2011 Boy Scout Requirements book is released in January 2011. 
Scouts may continue to earn the Bugling merit badge using the old pamphlet until that time. If Scouts have a copy of the new merit badge pamphlet with Music only, they can choose to earn the Music merit badge and complete the new bugling option as part of the requirements for the Music merit badge.
So, if you are an aspiring bugler, now is the time to get it get it done.
