Due to the pandemic, the Children's Science Center Lab is operating at a reduced capacity with timed-entry sessions. We are currently unable to offer badge specific programs at this time.
If you'd like to bring your troop to visit the Lab and work towards a badge, you can purchase tickets online and save $2 per ticket.
Please visit our hours and admissions page for more information.
