Scout Programs
Earn your scout badges at Oliver Nature Park, and let us take care of the details. Park staff provides supplies and instruction to earn standard badges or will work with your troop for a custom program. Group classes and camps are held throughout the year and open to any scouts in the area to participate and complete badge requirements, or troop leaders can schedule a private class for their troop to complete specific badges needed; see lists on the following tabs for available options and contact us for more details.
