Scouting America Merit Badge Workshops

Tinker Swiss Cottage does not provide badges or submit documentation for badges.
The classes your scout attends will help them complete the majority of requirements to secure their badges, which will need to be given to the troop leader working with your Scout on their badge.

​Upcoming Open Scouting America Class
"Architecture"
February 7th    2-3:30pm

At our next Scouting America Workshop, Scouts will learn about classic 19th century Victorian designs, including the architecture featured at Tinker Swiss Cottage. Topics include: introduction to Victorian-era, classic architecture features, sustainability and conservation, and careers in architecture. 

Pre-registration is required. All Scouts must have an adult with them. 

​Scouts will complete 4 out of 5 requirements for this badge. Badges are not provided by the museum.​

Scouts will need to complete the following requirements after they leave the workshop:
  • Requirement No. 4: Measure a room and make a scaled drawing of a room's floor plan. 
**Please note: There are no physical tickets. Once you purchase your seat, you will be placed onto a reservation form and will need to check in at the Barn upon arrival. ​
