Scouting Programs for Brownies, Cub Scouts, and Junior Girl Scouts

Ignite your imagination with these exciting scout programs. Our unique workshops are specially designed to immerse scouts in dynamic activities while they complete badge requirements.

Brownies

Brownies can earn their Listening to the Past badge.

Cub Scouts

Cub Scouts most often take a guided tour of our exhibits and then explore History Lab on their own; they may also want to schedule a walking tour of downtown West Chester.

Junior Girl Scouts

Junior Girl Scouts can earn part of the Local Lore badge or Toymaker badge at CCHS. See Special Events Calendar for specific badge days to fulfill requiremments for an entire badge.
