Girl Scout Try-It Overnight

Girl Scout Overnights are a unique way to complete workshops for specific
Try-Its, play in the museum, and experience a "Camp-In" in an exciting
environment! During the 2007-2008 school year, girls will be given a chance
to complete four activities to earn their Science Wonders Try-It with their
troop as well as explore and play in the Museum. A snack will be provided
and story or music time will be held in the Theater before bedtime. The
following morning the Museum's Discovermore Toy Store will be open!
To sign-up for an Overnight, please contact your local Girl Scout Council. If your Council has not booked an overnight with us, let them know they should!
Let us know they haven't! We will try to set one up for you as soon as
possible. However, if your Council is not hosting an Overnight and you and any other troops would like to sign up for your own Camp-In (50 person minimum
required), please contact Monica at (856) 424.1233 x 312.

Girl Scout Try-It Workshop

Not quite ready (or up for) a Museum Overnight? Then have we got the perfect solution for you! Try-It Workshops! The Try-It Workshops will enable Girl Scouts to complete two activities at the Garden State Discovery Museum in which they get the chance to experience programming that may not be readily available to them outside of the museum, and to have playtime in the Museum.

We have created weekday and weekend programs to accommodate busy schedules. Troop Leaders will then be supplied with suggested activities and two sample projects to complete on their own to fulfill the specific Try-It
requirements. Monthly Try-It Workshops are as follows.
