Explore the Maryland Science Center's programs just for scouts!
What better way to share STEM with your scouts than through a memorable experience at the Maryland Science Center? Get together your group of scouts to earn badges, get hands on with science, and learn new skills. Check out our current programs for scouts and all the dates available for both Girl Scouts and Scouts BSA.
Camp-In
Spend the night at our museum! Camp-In is a one-night overnight program that combines an indoor, overnight adventure with exciting, interactive science education. This year’s theme is Engineering! All Camp-In events include IMAX and planetarium shows, hands-on space science workshops and activities, a live demonstration, and time to explore many of the museum’s interactive exhibits.
The Camp-In season runs from January through April. Scouts in 1st-6th grade and school/youth groups in 3rd-6th grade are welcome to participate. If looking for an overnight for families, we offer Super Science Sleepovers in September, October, May and June every year.
Scouts Workshops
Girl Scouts and Scouts BSA have the chance to earn badges at the Maryland Science Center! More workshop dates for May and June will be available soon.
Private workshops will be unavailable January-April 2023. If your group is interested in booking a workshop, please contact On-Site STEM Programs Manager starting in May at campin@mdsci.org.
