• Badge Lab Reservations

  • At the STEM Experience Center, we’re here to help troop leaders support girls as they work toward the badges and experiences that matter most to them. That’s why the Badge Lab is designed to give troops a flexible, welcoming space where Girl Scouts can customize their visit, explore their interests, and build a memorable experience together.

    Starting in MY27, Badge Labs are open to any of the badges in the GSUSA portfolio--not just STEM related ones! 😊

    Each Badge Lab session includes the materials, tools, equipment, and supplies needed for the badge or patch of your choice. Your troop will use a space prepared for you at our STEM Experience Center, where a host will welcome you and guide you through the activity. We hope Badge Lab is a fun opportunity for your troop to bond, make lasting memories, and create a Badge Lab experience that fits your goals.

  • Badge Lab Information

  • How to book a Badge Lab 


    1. Identify a few date(s) on your calendar for your troop to meet. Ideally you need your first choice of when you’d like to reserve a Badge Lab, but also a backup just in case the first one isn’t available. 
     
    2. Tell us which badge(s) you’d like for your troop to earn! Each Badge Lab session is designated for one badge, but if you have a multi-level troop then we can accommodate multiple ages for the same badge. (Example: Brownie Coding Basics and Junior Coding Basics). 

    3. Once we receive your request, we will be in contact to confirm your reservation and to clarify any additional details. We will also arrange payment for your Badge Lab after these details are confirmed.

    4. We will reach out a week prior to your Badge Lab to send confirmation and additional details (including outstanding balances, weather alerts, etc). 


    Costs for a Badge Lab  
    All fees cover the costs of supplies, staffing and the associated badge/patch for your Badge Lab. Please register all adults that plan to attend. 

    NEW THIS YEAR- all Badge Labs will be facilitated! And there is no minimum amount of Girl Scouts required to attend. Badge Labs also have new pricing rates based on preferences for booking either a private or open Badge Lab.

    Private Badge Labs: this is a Badge Lab that is booked just for your troop and will be invoiced directly to the adult volunteer who completes the booking. Private Badge Lab rates are below:
    $10 per girl per private Badge Lab booking 
    $2 per adult per private Badge Lab booking
     

    Public Badge Labs: this option allows your troop to book a Badge Lab to earn a badge of your choice on the date that suits your schedule, but can elect to have it open to the rest of our council for other Girl Scouts to register. By choosing a public Badge Lab, your troop can book at a lower rate:

    $8 per girl per public Badge Lab booking

    $2 per adult per public Badge Lab booking
