The Manitowoc County Historical Society Museum and Pinecrest Village is proud to offer programming for scouts to earn badges, petals, loops, and patches. The programing for scouts typically fulfills a badge requirement, but additional activities outside of the program may be required. Museum admission is included in the price of the program.
Each hands-on workshop will take place during a morning and afternoon session. Scouts and their families are welcome to explore the museum following their program. Space is available for lunch at the Two Creeks Town Hall.
Space is limited. Scouts should check with the individual counselors to confirm needed activities prior to registering.
Class options are listed below.

Textile Artist
Senior Girl Scout Badge: When you see all the colors and textures of fabrics and yarns, do you dream up a million things to do with them?
