Webelos Activity Badge Calendar

***Due to the increasing cost of materials and associated fees necessary to deliver Museum programs, we are instituting a rate increase for all Webelos workshops taking place on or after January 1, 2013. The new rate is $15 per Scout, per workshop. This increase will help us continue to deliver the highest level of programming to every Scout who attends a workshop at the National Scouting Museum. We thank you for your understanding.***
