Overnight Adventure Program Themes & Badges

Mix, Measure, Make!

Get ready to cook, create, and taste! Scouts will explore the world of food as they prepare a delicious snack, a sweet dessert, and a tasty drink. Using a variety of kitchen tools and cooking methods, they will learn how ingredients work together while adding their own twist to classic familiar recipes. This hands-on workshop encourages creativity, teamwork, and confidence as Scouts practice important cooking skills and discover new recipes that they can recreate at home!

    Age Requirement: Children must be between the ages of 5 and 11 years of age.

    Chaperones: We encourage as much chaperone participation as possible but we do ask that groups do not include more adults than children.

    Can I add additional children and adults after initial registration? It may be possible to add more children and adults to your registration provided the Overnight Adventure is not sold out.  All add ons must be made by the Leader in Charge.

    Are refunds provided if a member of my group cannot attend? Once a registration is confirmed, refunds are not granted. If a troop can no longer attend the overnight, they may reschedule for another date or ask for a credit for next year’s overnights.

  • What time should troops arrive?

    Check-In and Orientation for all attendees starts at 5pm until 5:45pm. Please allow ample time for travel, drop off and parking.

    You’re allowed to bring anything that would make your night more comfortable. Sleeping bags, air mattresses (twin or full size), pillows, blankets, camping pads are all acceptable. We cannot accommodate any tents or cots.

  • Are children able to participate in the workshop even if they are not sleeping over?

    Yes, however the museum doors will be locked at 7pm. Anyone who needs to leave the museum will need to be signed out at our Guest Services station by Security BEFORE exiting the building.

  • What if we need to make a last-minute change to our Scout reservation?

    We understand that plans can change! You can make adjustments to your reservation, such as adding or removing participants, up to one week prior to your scheduled Overnight Adventure. After that point, we are unable to accommodate changes due to staffing and planning requirements.
