Everything a Girl Scout does centers around STEM, the outdoors, development of life skills and entrepreneurship, and is designed to meet her where she is now and to grow along with her. Lake Erie Nature & Science Center is proud to offer a variety of Girl Scout programs for Daisies through Seniors that utilize our natural setting, live animal collection, public-access planetarium and highly trained staff. Our programs meet the Girl Scout Curriculum Standards and feature STEM education badges including space science and mechanical engineering.

Girl Scout Self-guided Backpacks
All-inclusive backpacks provide all the materials, instructions and activities necessary for your troop to complete a variety of natural science badges on your own. For a limited time, the Center will offer backpack rentals to complete at-home. Backpacks include all materials with the exception of writing utensils. Badges will be provided once the backpack is returned and backpacks will be cleaned after each use.
