  What better way is there to spend your day than by coming to the Intrepid Museum to learn about history and science? Scout programs and activities are designed to help children earn requirements towards their Badges, Interest Projects, Loops or Try-Its.
Scout Days
On Scout Days children can participate in fun activities with museum educators and volunteers. Generally, children can participate in make-it and take-it activities and will be able to hear from speakers to learn about such topics as aviation, water conservation, civic duty or engineering.

Girl Scouts will participate in a number of activities that will help them learn about careers in aviation as well as how aircraft fly.
