Our 300+ acre classroom provides the perfect venue for your troop’s investigation of the natural world. Our programs are designed to help Scouts complete badges and other goals!

The Sanctuary’s professional teaching staff is dedicated to sharing the world of nature with learners of all ages. Our age-appropriate programs are designed to be hands-on, engaging, and are tailored to meet each badge’s specific requirements. All scout programs range between 1 to 1.5 hours in length. Please call early, as space is limited and programs are scheduled on a first come / first serve basis.

Daytime and Evening Scout Programs

Girl Scout Journeys (NEW)

Need help completing an activity in the It’s Your Planet-Love it! journey? NBS educators are here to help! We’ll work with your troop at NBS to complete activities and provide expert advice. Each program ranges between 1 to 1.5 hours and is the same price as a Badge Program. 

Night Hike

Available for all groups at an additional cost, this special program is an educational adventure for scouts and adults alike. Join us as we explore the forest after dark, learn about the senses that animals (including us humans) use to survive at night, and meet nocturnal animals. No flashlights are needed – we’ll use our own night vision to find our way!
