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. Choose 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). Unfortunately, we cannot accommodate different ages and different badges (i.e. Brownie Art & Design and Junior Coding Basics) within the same reservation. However, if you’d like to do that, feel free to submit multiple requests!
3. Complete this form or contact Customer Care directly to schedule your Badge Lab by calling 317-924-6800 or emailing customercare@girlscoutsindiana.org
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.
$8 per girl per Badge Lab
$2 per adult per Badge Lab
There is a minimum of 12 girls and enough adults to meet safety activity checkpoints.

We’re excited to share that we’ve expanded our offerings to include Badge Labs that will occur in our Makerspace and Evolution of Coding room, as well as the Exploration Lab, so that our troops can experience more of what the STEM Experience Center has to offer!
Additionally, we’ve taken your feedback and adjusted our offerings below to be chosen for Badge Lab that can occur at any point in the year instead of quarterly!
