Cub Scout and Scouts BSA Badge Programs 2019-2020

•  Cost: Our fees have changed!

  • $15 per Scout + 1 adult (cub scout pricing)

  • $8.80 for each additional adult

  • $6.40 per sibling (non-participant).

• Price is per program and includes zoo admission.

• Pre-registration required.

• Workshop activities may include: guided zoo tours, meeting animal ambassadors, group activities, filling out worksheets, and craft projects. 

• To keep our badge workshops scout-focused, we charge an additional fee for siblings and additional adults who would also like to attend. This fee covers discounted admission into the zoo and the ability to observe the workshops. Siblings and additional adults are only able to observe our badge workshops. Scouts participate in the activities, thus receiving certificates of completion. 

• Cub Scouts (Tiger, Wolf, Bear, and Webelo) must be accompanied by a responsible adult for the duration of the badge workshops. Boy Scouts may be dropped off and complete the workshop on their own. Adults responsible for Boy Scouts must enter the education building to sign in their scout(s) and give contact information before the workshop begins.
