*Scouting the Scouts: Creating Quality Scout Badge Programs *

*Thursday, November 7, 2024 at 10 a.m. *

Did you know there are over 3 million registered Boy and Girl Scouts across the United States? Through badge-earning activities, scouting helps kids develop academic skills, self-confidence, and leadership abilities. Museums and cultural heritage institutions are uniquely positioned to support scouting by offering badge earning programs while inviting scouts to explore the museum.

Kayte Ricketts, Education Coordinator at Bell County Museum in Belton, Texas, shares how her museum successfully incorporates scout programming. She will discuss how these programs not only increase museum visitorship but also provide meaningful educational opportunities for the community. Kayte will also share the variety of badges scouts can earn, and how to effectively market this new programming to reach local scout groups.

This webinar is perfect for museum programmers looking to build partnerships with local scout organizations and hoping to create dynamic, badge-based learning experiences.
