Attention! Due to the current social distancing recommendations in response to COVID-19, most in-house programs at the museum have been suspended. This includes Winter/Spring 2021 merit badge programs. However, the museum’s merit badge counselors have prepared digital packets for your Scout to keep on Scouting! These packets have been designed to fill all requirements, virtually, while keeping your Scout engaged through stories, videos, interviews, projects, and experiments. All programs are self-paced to align with Scouts BSA requirements.
This program is open to ALL Scouts! See merit badge opportunities below. Registration and pricing are at the bottom of this page. If you would like to view a free sample of any of the programs, below, please email your request to [email protected]
