About this Event
Use the DAR Museum collections to explore how family histories are collected and preserved. Share stories about your family with other Brownies and play a game to see how stories change over time. Then, write about your day in a brand-new diary and create a family tree to tell your family story!
This program results in earning the "My Family Story" badge, which is included in the registration price.
FAQs
Do parents or Troop leaders need to buy a ticket?
Yes. There are free tickets for acompanying adults and other children. The ticket price covers the cost of materials for the participating scouts. Only those who wish to participate in the craft activities need to purchase a ticket (siblings may also participate but cannot receive a badge according to Girl Scout guidelines). Free reservations should be made for everyone attending.
