Boy Scout Badge Programs

Our mission is to stimulate awareness and understanding of our planet and to promote a sense of responsiblity and skills for its care. By providing exciting and educational programs for both Boy and Girl Scouts, we hope to encourage a sound base from which the Scouts can appreciate the wonders around them.

Reservations are required for all programs. Registration for programs are made through the Nature Center, not through the scout councils (unless indicated otherwise). Please call 610-935-9777 for more information.

Please note! Unless severe weather threatens, we do go out in the rain! Participants should dress for the weather. If conditions are unsuitable for your group, please call us at least one hour in advance to discuss your options.
