Scouts

Consider Penn Dixie and our accredited merit badge counselor(s) for completing your Scout’s merit badge requirements! Our Scout group rate is $15 per Scout, 5 Scout minimum. 1 adult is included for free with every 5 Scouts. Additional adults are welcome to join at $10 / each. Some badges are subject to an additional materials charge of $2 per Scout. At least one adult must remain with your Scouts for the duration of the program.

Please note that most badges can be completed in one 2 hour session, but the Boy Scout Environmental Science badge must be completed in one 4 hour session or two 2 hour sessions. The cost for the Boy Scout Environmental Science badge is $30 per Scout, 5 Scout minimum.

Contact our science program coordinator Robin at robin@penndixie.org or 716-627-4560, for additional questions or to book a program. All programs requests must be made at least 2 weeks in advance. A deposit of $75 will be required at the time of badge program booking. Any additional balance must be paid by badge completion. We request that payment be made by a single transaction.

If you are planning a group visit with your Scouts, but are not seeking our staff’s help with achieving a badge, you can book a 2 hour tour at a rate of $10 per person, 10 person minimum. Groups of less than 10 people have a flat rate of $100. This rate does not include staff’s assistance with achieving a merit badge, but an educator will lead your group on a guided tour focused on fossil hunting and site exploration. Contact Director of Education Sydney at sydney@penndixie.org or 716-627-4560, to book a group visit.
