Calling all Scouts!
Join us in the Charlestown Navy Yard for Scout Day–a special day of activities just for Scouting America Scouts and Girl Scouts. Scouts will learn about life at sea in 1812 and life in the Navy today, all while meeting some requirements for scout rank advancement badges. Girl Scout Juniors – register to complete your Playing The Past badge! Explore the Museum and Ship as you stop at different activity stations throughout the Navy Yard. There will be something for all ages, so come as a scout, a family, or as a troop! All registered scouts will receive a special America 250 USS Constitution Museum Scout Day patch.
Activities include:
- Tour USS Constitution, a national landmark. Don’t forget to bring your troop’s American flag to fly on board and fold with a Navy crew member.
- Build and race your own ship out of household materials in our Raingutter Regatta™.
- Join in knot-tying and 1812 sailor games.
- Express your creativity at our maker station! Make a copper bell mobile to take home with you.
- Participate in a mock 1812 gun drill with your troop.
- Meet USS Constitution’s active-duty Navy crew.
- Write a letter of encouragement to a new Navy recruit in boot camp.
- Build a LEGO® replica of USS Constitution, USS Nantucket, or USS Cassin Young.
A full list of activities and related badge requirements is coming soon. Please note, the Museum will provide evidence of completed activities. Girl Scout Juniors can register to complete the Playing the Past badge.
