Happy 1st Birthday Rebel Badge Club!
Today marks 1 year of Rebel Badge Book! The book was first published by Amazon on October 17th. In that time the Club has changed immensely.
We’ve gone from a single paperback and 52 merit badges, to hardbacks, stickers, Journals, workbook stickers, wallcharts, and much more. We’ve had our first Rebel Meet Up, with four more events, including Rebel Summer Camp in the diary already. We’ve created The Maverick Awards, and The Rebel Council, and the 52 merit badges became 57, soon to be 104 … and monthly and quarterly challenges have become regular occurences.
So what’s next for Rebel Badge Club?
Well in the coming weeks, we will see the hundreds of boxes of badges, clothes, books and stickers finally move out of the 4 rooms of my house they have been dominating for some time, and into a converted stables, which is set to become Rebel HQ. I’ll be sharing the updates on social media as we move in, in the next 4-6 weeks.
My good friend Lucie, who has been in the Facebook group since the beginning, came to help at the Reading Meet Up last Saturday. Once the boxes have been moved into the new storage facilities, she will start working for RBC part-time so that I no longer spend all my evenings and weekends packing orders.
Next month, our second Big Rebel Meet Up will take place in Stockport - with CSI training, an escape experience, and apothecary creations all on the activity list. Plus two other activities. Tickets are still available on the shop.
And finally Volume 2 of Rebel Badge Book will go on sale next month. Discounted, priority pre-order will be available to Rebels between October 24th and November 6th - these orders will be distributed first when the books arrive in stock :)
Happy Birthday RBC! (we ate a LOT of birthday cake on Saturday at the Reading Meet Up!)
