Scout Programs
At Heritage Hill, we think scouts are super! Join us for one of our scheduled scout workshops throughout the year – new workshops are added regularly so check back often!
Scouting Workshop Facts
A good scout is always prepared. Here’s what you need to know about scouting workshops at Heritage Hill.
- Scouts and chaperones cost $15 each. This includes your scouting workshop and park admission for the whole day but does not include your scout patch.
- Registration and payment are required in advance. Cancellations can be made up to 7 days before the event for a full refund. Cancellations within 7 days of the event and no-shows to the event are not eligible for a refund. Space is limited.
- If attending as a troop, we require 1 adult for every 15 students.
- Memberships and passes are not valid for scout programs.
- You may spend time outside during your scout workshop. Our programs run rain or shine so come dressed for the weather!
- Heritage Hill’s buildings and pathways are wheelchair accessible but please be aware that we are on a hill and weather can make conditions slippery.
