The Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math (STEM) center encourages scouts to explore their interests in STEM. This interactive area has Merit Badges that span across many interests and activities that scouts may enjoy.
From Exploration, Archaeology, Chemistry, and Environmental Science (Eagle Required), to name a few, Scouts can learn the value of asking questions and understanding the world around them. The STEM center strives to make each badge as fun and educational as possible so that an interest in STEM can continue outside camp.
The STEM center also offers a way for scouts to get involved outside of merit badges. The area has daily Mad Science Experiments that are a fun way for any scout or scouter to interact with different aspects of the area and complete an exciting activity that will teach everyone about various aspects of our world.
Some of the Merit Badges offered by the center have prerequisites or extra information needed to complete the badge fully; the full Merit Badge list including prerequisites can be found on the Activity Schedule.
Most of the STEM Merit Badges and activities take place at the STEM shelter, located near main camp across from the Climbing Tower.
