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.

Girl Scout Brownie Badge Day Program

At these events, Brownie troops can spend a couple hours, or a leisurely day at the Zoo doing activities to earn a badge. Registered troops will receive a guide booklet upon checking in at the Zoo. The booklet will show where activity stations are located and will help you to record your experiences. Zoo Instructors will be on hand to lead or help with activities. Activity stations will be set up and can be visited anytime during the event and can be completed in any order. Brownies completing all five activities can receive their badge at the Zoo.

To register, please print the Scout Program Registration packet. For more information call the Education Department at (314) 646-4544.
