For Tiger, Wolf, Bear & Webelos Scouts

Every year our Scout Days are extremely popular events. Below is a glimpse of the activities the scouts get to perform and the corresponding electives. During each Scout Day Session, four groups of scouts rotate between four stations in the Museum every half-hour. Then all four groups join for an experience in the Hot Shop where they decide what the glassblowers create.
