Scout Badge Workshop: Astronomy
Boy Scouts can spend the evening earning their Astronomy Merit Badge on March 10, 2012, from 5:30 to 8:30 p.m. Our certified Merit Badge Counselor will take you on an adventure through our solar system, including a visit to StarLab, our inflatable planetarium, as well as hands-on activities and individual guidance. The San Bernardino Valley Amateur Astronomers have invited all scouts to view stars with them in the museum’s parking lot from 8:30 to 9:30 p.m., weather permitting. Parents may drop their Boy Scouts off for this 3-hour workshop or may attend with them, but this program is not appropriate for siblings. Cost is $22.00 per Scout, and the registration form is on-line at http://www.sbcounty.gov/museum/discover/divisions/education/pdf/Scout-Re.... The deadline to register is March 1, but Scouts may call Nancy Kirkwood at 909-307-2669, ext. 271, after the deadline to see if there is still space available in this workshop.
