Boy Scouts grades 6 & up
Boy Scouts Snooze at the Zoo
Reptile and Amphibian Merit Badge
Work on activities to help earn the reptile and amphibian merit badge while staying the night at the Zoo!
Scouts will rotate through three different workshops which will help them to complete activities number 3, 5, 6, 7, 9a, and 10.
Overnight evening activities will include a live animal encounter, rotations through three exciting activities, an evening pizza snack (with a soft drink), and a night hike around Zoo grounds which includes a flashlight tour of the Herpetarium. The morning portion of the overnight adventure includes a continental breakfast, a morning stroll around Zoo grounds to see the animals wake up, a souvenir Zoo patch and glow-in-the-dark overnight cup!

Do You Have a Mixed Age Group of Scouts?
If you have a scout troop/pack/den that has multiple age levels and our Snooze at the Zoo programs do not match your needs, you can schedule your own private scout overnight. When you schedule your own overnight we use the themes which we are currently offering but tailor them to match your needs. These overnights cost $35 per person and we require a minimum of 30 participants (this total includes scouts and adults) and a maximum of 60 participants.
Please contact Keri Lammering, Overnight Programs Coordinator at (314) 646-4614 or klammering@stlzoo.org for more information.
