Go on a journey and earn your badge at the Zoo! Workshops are now available to help girls complete the Think Like a Citizen Scientist journey and STEM Career Exploration badge.
Think Like a Citizen Scientist – Daisies, Brownies, & Juniors
This workshop will focus on the scientific method, how scientists collect data and prepare girls to take part in citizen science projects. Girl scouts will gain the knowledge and understanding necessary to complete the “Think Like a Citizen Scientist” journey. Completion of the journey will require continued participation from the girls after the workshop.
STEM Career Exploration – Juniors & Cadettes
Have you ever wondered what it takes to care for wild animals? Do you enjoy learning about the tools scientists use? Have you wished you could save an endangered animal? This workshop will explore these questions and the careers available to biologists. Participation in this workshop can complete the requirements of the STEM Career Exploration badge for Juniors and Cadettes.
Photo Explorers – Juniors & Cadettes
Visit the Zoo to explore photography and take part on a guided scavenger hunt to capture special animal moments. Scouts are welcome to bring their own cameras, but are not required. This workshop will introduce scouts to terminology, some best practice techniques, and experience taking photos of animals in the park.
