This is an event for Scouts BSA Scouts 8th Grade and Older.

Parking is available at Lot NC-60 on North Campus. The is next to the Cooley building where most of the events will be taking place. There will be some tours outside of Cooley, but we plan to have volunteers escort the scouts to the locations from Cooley. Any tours away from Cooley should not be more than a 15 minute walk, with the Naval Architecture and Marine Engineering building being the furthest tour.

Please fill out the University of Michigan Children on Campus form to attend.

We would like to have an adult present with each group of scouts, and have the leaders available to check-in with the scouts' progress on the merit badges.
